Lots of good info on the official UPZS website. The company overview tells a great story for starters:
------------------------------------------------------
Unique Pizza and Subs Corporation (OTC Pink: UPZS) franchises pizza and sub restaurants throughout the United States. With a limited menu of pizzas, subs, calzones, salads, and beverages, the company is primarily focused on takeout and delivery services with limited full size restaurants. The company also offers an express franchise targeting carts/kiosks and retail franchises for retailers.

Founder and CEO James C. Vowler has owned and operated pizza shops since 1991. During this time, he conducted research, analyzed numerous other pizza businesses, and tested recipes to develop a truly unique pizza.

There are several successful pizza shops but none of them have what we offer: They simply are not “UNIQUE“.

The company has expanded and diversified into other food lines that complement its core business. These wholly owned subsidiaries include:

The PopsyCakes Company was founded by Jessica Cervantes when she decided to create an innovative cupcake on an edible stick in 2006 at the age of 16. Ever since her grandmother taught her how to bake, Jessica has loved measuring and tasting different ingredients – and mixing them up to see how her culinary creations would turn out. But it wasn’t until Jessica became a part of the International Business and Finance Academy at John A. Ferguson Senior High school, that baking and business came together in a brand new recipe for success.

The budding baker/entrepreneur, who immigrated to the U.S. from Cuba as a child, competed against 25,000 business students across the country and won first place in the Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE.com) National business plan, a competition which was held on October 23, 2008 in New York City. Her innovative creation has caused a great buzz across the United States.

Ms. Cervantes continues to be a part of the company today.

As it did in 1969 at the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village, Christopher Street still stands as the international center for the Gay Rights Movement. Christopher St. Love & Life products celebrate Gay Pride with a line of quality products dedicated to the LGBTQ Community and pledges to support this cause which is so precious in the hearts and minds of our brothers and sisters.

In 1987, José Madrid Salsa became a reality, named after the family icon and beloved grandfather from Clovis, New Mexico. Mike Zakany’s tribute to his grandfather celebrates his childhood memories of the larger than life man.

He could ride a horse and shoot a gun better than anyone else in the unsettled New Mexico Territory of the early 1900’s. José was the reason the family rallied together for summer vacations and reunions in Clovis, and the perfect namesake for the unique New Mexico style of salsa. José Madrid Salsa made its first sales in gourmet and grocery stores during the Christmas season of 1988. The legend of José Madrid lives on and continues to grow with a line of fourteen different salsas and more in development.
