Amy was also awarded franchise manager of the year for Tasmania, proving her management skills not only promote speedy service but high performance in all aspects of the business.
During the competition, each team of four pizza makers as put to the test as they made six pizzas to strict specifications. The six finalists were judged on their pizza-making speed, adherence to topping requirements, overall pizza quality and appearance.
This high-energy pizza making competition was held during the annual Domino’s National Rally in Brisbane, Queensland.
Domino’s team coach Mat Kluver said the Sorell team faced stiff competition from close runners-up Wyalla, Atkinvale and Westridge – all from Queensland.
“The Sorell team was the only finalist not from a Queensland store,” Mat said.
“It felt good to take out the title and show everyone that the Sorell team have what it takes to become Australia’s fastest pizza makers.
“The sauce and toppings were flying thick and fast during the pizza making competition, where the Sorell team triumphed, proving we are the best of the best!”
Domino’s Sorell owners and operators Amy and John Cobley said they were thrilled their team took out the 2011 Australia and New Zealand Pizza Making Championships once again.
“Being crowned Australia’s fastest pizza makers for the second year in a row is a huge honour! It really reinforces the fact that our team at Sorell is making the best looking and tasting pizzas, faster than any other Domino’s store in Australia and New Zealand,” Amy said.
“Our team were very determined to win. They showed their dedication by training almost daily for weeks prior to the championships,” she said.
