Featured on the Emerging Franchise Brands Podcast

In this episode of Emerging Franchise Brands, Frank Fiume sits down with our own Toni Calderone, founder of PastaNito, to talk about how she transformed a fine dining background and family restaurant legacy into a fast-growing, quick-service pasta franchise. Toni shares the origin of PastaNito’s three-minute fresh pasta concept, her pandemic pivot strategy, and why she believes franchising is the path forward. From humble roots in York, Pennsylvania, to building a national distribution network, Toni’s story is one of grit, innovation, and heart.
