Dough Time Sydneys Fastest-Growing Pizzeria Sets Sights on National and Global Expansion

Sydney, Australia, 2nd Jul 2025 – Dough Time, the Sydney-based pizzeria that started as a small local shop in Quakers Hill, has quickly become one of the most talked-about names in the city’s food scene. In under two years, the business has expanded to three locations—Quakers Hill, Earlwood, and Kellyville—garnering over 600 five-star Google reviews along the way. Now, with a fourth location secured and expansion plans in motion, Dough Time is proving that franchising can be about community, quality, and authentic customer connections, as much as it is about rapid growth. 

Founded by business partners Sam and Ali, Dough Time was created with a simple yet powerful goal: to bring back the experience of truly great pizza. From day one, the duo focused on using fresh ingredients, time-honored recipes, and outstanding customer service to stand out in Sydney’s competitive food industry.

“We wanted to build something that reminded people why they love pizza,” said Sam. “A place where quality and customer experience come first, and where people feel like they’re part of a community, not just another transaction.”

That customer-first philosophy has been key to Dough Time’s success. With years of experience in sales and service, Sam and Ali recognised a gap in the market: a lack of traditional pizza shops that truly valued customer relationships. They set out to change that by making genuine connections a core part of their business model.

Their approach has resonated with local pizza lovers, who not only praise Dough Time’s food but also its welcoming atmosphere. Social media has played a major role in the brand’s rapid rise, with the team regularly engaging with customers, sharing behind-the-scenes content, and highlighting real feedback to continuously improve their offerings.

Another defining factor in Dough Time’s popularity is its commitment to inclusivity. As one of the few fully halal pizza shops in Sydney, the brand has attracted a diverse customer base eager to enjoy high-quality, flavorful pizzas that align with their dietary needs.

“We wanted everyone to feel comfortable walking into our stores,” said Ali. “Whether it’s through our menu options or the way we interact with customers, our goal has always been to create a space where everyone is welcome.”

Now, with a strong foundation in place, Dough Time is gearing up for the next phase of growth—franchising. Unlike the rigid structures often associated with franchise models, Sam and Ali are determined to keep flexibility and authenticity at the core of their expansion strategy.

“Franchising doesn’t have to mean sacrificing quality or personality,” Ali explained. “We want to give entrepreneurs the chance to replicate our success while allowing them the freedom to adapt and thrive within their communities.”

Looking ahead, the team has already locked in a fourth Sydney location and is setting its sights beyond Sydney. With expansion on the horizon, Dough Time is ready to bring its signature combination of quality, service, and community-driven hospitality to pizza lovers all over Australia and perhaps the world.

“We’re just getting started,” said Sam. “Dough Time was built on passion and a belief that great food and great people can create something special. We can’t wait to see where this journey takes us next.”
