Perky’s Pizza, a subsidiary of the Tonge Group of Companies, officially opened the doors to its new location at Maycourt House on 42 Cork Street in Roseau.

Speaking at the opening ceremony this morning, Chairman Curtis Tonge praised the support of the loyal customers from the entity’s inception in 1999.

“Today what we are seeing is all because of our wonderful, dedicated customers. Today is yet another milestone in the journey of the Tonge Group of Companies. It is testimony that as you support us, we continue to support the community. We continue to pledge ourselves to nation building,” Tonge stated.

Chief Executive Officer, Robert Tonge, reiterated his father’s words and thanked customers for their long standing commitment to the entity and announced that the company will soon offer delivery services.

Manager of Perky’s Pizza, Rosemary Bunche, encouraged the public to come in, try the products and provide feedback for an overall experience that exceeds customers’ expectations.

“We are only happy when our customers are satisfied and we value feedback from our customers. We want to hear from our customers. We will listen!” she said.

Perky’s International Representative Bill Sweet along with Valentine Tonge cut the ribbon to declare the new location officially opened.

      Well said, I visited Dominica last year , since it was my first time visited since the beer factory opened it’s door in Dominica, I can say when I first tasted the kubuli beers, I could not believe myself, this beer is far more better than any other beer, i can say that this a a great beer, I have drank several beers from all over, and there is none to compare with the Nature Island beer, the Kubuli

      Support local, buy local something that the US president is asking Americans to do, so Dominicans support your local industries, foreign is never better, being out of Dominica for many years I can attest to that, when Dominicans visit the Island, why do you think that they always want to live with a gallon of rum, the reason is that, the Dominica rum taste far better

    I like perkys.. the other local one taste like it has something sweet in the dough or something… which I hate.. and the new (overseas) one is so salty..yuuuuckkkk. I will stick with Perky’s when I need Pizza..it not crazy oily, sweet or salty.

    Keep it up.. I will support when I can…only now… I just find a piece of pizza too expensive man. I mean.. when you really check.. it is nearly ten dollars for a little piece of pie chart thing….
