Colors History

Our aim is to continue growing at a speed that will permit us to continue placing our customers as our first priority.

Colors Yesterday

 Our colorful history started in 1991 with the opening of Colors Pizza Café, a full-service family restaurant in Encinitas, California. Our pizza oven was a roasting oven with a stone deck and we soon realized we could not make our pizza fast enough. The solution was to par-bake our crusts ahead of time.

In 1994, we changed our name to Colors Gourmet Pizza and moved to a 3,500-square-foot production kitchen in Carlsbad, California. We continued making our pizza crusts by hand, the same artisan way we had learned in our restaurant. We listened to the needs of our chef customers and introduced more sizes, styles, and shapes to satisfy the demand of our growing family of customers.

Colors Today And Tomorrow

In 2007, Colors relocated to a new, 

15,000-square-foot facility in Vista, California, and is still a perfect blend of products created by old world artisans and modern technology. In addition to serving our local customers, we started partnering with out-of-state distributors, offering our products throughout a dozen states.

 Our aim is to continue growing at a speed that will permit us to continue placing our customers as our first priority. As we enter our second decade, we are proud of the human size of our company. All our products are still mixed in small batches, and hand-made by people …not machines.
