A new firefighter-themed pizza chain, Nozzleman Pizza Co., is set to expand in 2025, with locations expected to open inside Walmart stores in Casper and Laramie, Wyoming, KGAB AM 650 reports.
Founded in 2023 in Sparks, Nevada, Nozzleman Pizza Co. was created by retired firefighter Jesse Corletto and franchise industry veteran Robert Powells. Their vision was to build a high-quality, quick-serve pizza brand that also honors firefighters. As part of this mission, a portion of the proceeds from each location will be donated to local fire departments in the communities where they operate.
The name “Nozzleman” refers to the firefighter responsible for operating the fire hose nozzle, leading the attack team during a fire response. The restaurant design will reflect a fire station engine bay, aiming to create a community gathering space similar to a real firehouse.
Nozzleman Pizza Co. is planning to open 17 locations across six states in 2025, with Wyoming now included in its expansion plans. While an official opening date for the Wyoming locations has not been announced, reports indicate Casper and Laramie will each have a location inside a Walmart store.
The menu features a variety of classic pizza options along with appetizers, salads, and sandwiches:
Appetizers & Salads: Garlic cheese bread, chicken tenders, fries, mozzarella sticks, and Caesar salad.
Sandwiches: Grilled cheese and grilled cheese with bacon.
Pizza Slices & Combos: Cheese, pepperoni, and meat pizza, available with fries and a drink.
Whole Pizzas (16-inch): Cheese, pepperoni, and meat.
Currently, Nozzleman Pizza Co. has one operational location inside a Walmart store in Carson City, Nevada. The company is also offering franchise opportunities for those interested in bringing the concept to additional Walmart locations.
