256: Pizza Expo Series, Part 1: Voices of Leadership
This week, we start our Pizza Expo Interview Series from the show floor at Pizza Expo 2025. We kick off this special edition of The Hot Slice Podcast with two operators who were inspiring speakers at this year’s show. They are:
Eric Redfield, co-owner of Camporosso in Fort Mitchell, Kentucky. We caught up with Eric a day before he gave a powerful keynote address on his Purpose-driven business that had the room in tears. Watch his entire keynote address. Camporosso was Pizza Today’s 2024 Pizzeria of the Year.
Jonathan Fell and Zachary Black, along with Jonathan’s father Marty who founded Jason’s New York Style Pizza in Bangor, Maine, 1997. Jonathan and Zachary brought fresh energy as new speakers this year with a session called “Innovate to Elevate”. We talk business, longevity and continuing the legacy.
Stay tuned as we continue our interviews from Pizza Expo 2025.
