Business Spotlight: Tenney's Pizza

By Kimberly Bennett
Kevin Tenney started working as a pizza delivery driver when he was 16 years old, and he's been working with pizza ever since, making a career that started nearly 20 years ago. He moved up from driver, to manager, to owner of a chain restaurant. And then, in 2011, he opened up his own place, right here in Saratoga Springs; Tenney's Pizza.
There are now five Tenney's locations spread across Utah and Salt Lake Counties; Saratoga Springs, American Fork, Sandy, Provo, and most recently, Riverton. "We're not a nameless, faceless corporation," Kevin Tenney says. "We try to keep the [community] in mind with everything we do." And that includes pricing. Tenney stresses that having a lower price doesn't mean a lower quality. In fact, they try to find what tastes the best, and figure the price out later. And because taste is so important, they hand make everything. "I really enjoy building something," Tenney says. "And kind of being creative. Trying new things, doing new things." He goes on to express how they've tried different combinations. Some of which have been successful, and some, like the briefly lived hotdog pizza, not so much. They are expecting their cookie pizza with ice cream to be a big hit.
"I feel like we offer a ton of different things, but it's hard to let people know," Tenney says, describing the healthier options they offer. These include a skinny-crust wheat tortilla option, the pizzomelet where they use eggs instead of crust, and a gluten free crust, just to name a few.
Tenney's also offers various loyalty programs, from a punch card system for buy 10 get 1 free, a Facebook page with lots of free giveaways, and a text message program where texting "Tenneys" to 53535 allows you in on the special deals.
Kevin Tenney and his family have lived in Saratoga Springs since 2000. He and his wife have 6 kids, the two eldest working at Tenney's. They also own a cross fit gym.
"We are excited to be here," says Tenney. "We enjoy growing and we're thankful for the customers that we have."
