George Peyton and Casey Conner never could have imagined their first year of business at Good Pizza Company in Swannanoa, North Carolina would unfold as it did. The pizzeria opened on August 15 and a mere six weeks later, the town of Swannanoa would become one of the hardest hit natural disaster areas in the aftermath of the devastating Hurricane Helene. The former pizzeria that the two spend months remodeling took on 10 inches of water forcing the team to pull out floors, walls and equipment that was damaged in the flood. 

George and Casey didn’t flinch and quickly started to rebuild their business so they could serve their community that still struggles to recover, while also helping their neighbors. When they were able to reopen, there was a huge outpouring of the community. Hear more of the heroin story.

Good Pizza Company hit another high when George took second place in the Southeast of the World’s Best Cheese Slice Division at the International Pizza Challenge during Pizza Expo in Las Vegas in March. The brothers took that win back to their community to celebrate. We talk more about what has happened after the win.
