Big Wal­nut area folks who enjoy Jet’s Pizza are famil­iar with the West­er­ville store in a Giant Eagle Plaza out-lot on North State Street. That’s where many of them stop on the way home from work to pick up their favorite Jet’s pizza, sub or salad.

But dri­ving out of the way or stop­ping in West­er­ville and arriv­ing home with a cold pizza is a thing of the past, because on Fri­day, Feb­ru­ary 22, Jet’s Pizza opened its 11th cen­tral Ohio store in Sun­bury Mills Plaza.

The Sun­bury Jet’s Pizza Gen­eral man­agers are Bran­don Guares­imo and Kait­lyn Her­man, a.k.a. Kait, and the store employs 14 to 15 area res­i­dents, many of them Big Wal­nut students.

Dur­ing a stop at the new Sun­bury Mills Plaza Jet’s Pizza on open­ing day Her­man said all Colum­bus area Jet’s Pizza stores are fran­chised by the same ini­tial own­ers, and the man­age­ment is set into teams to run each store and train for future stores to open.

“Both Bran­don and I are ecsta­tic about being placed at this store,” Her­man said. “A close-knit com­mu­nity like Sun­bury and the Big Wal­nut area always pro­vides an amaz­ing oppor­tu­nity for our food and ser­vices to shine.”

Her­man said all of the Jet’s store hours are 10 a.m. until 10 p.m. Sun­day through Thurs­day, and 10 a.m. to 12 mid­night Fri­day and Saturday.

“We do deliver and there is a deliv­ery fee of $2.50 for every deliv­ery order,” Her­man said. “Our quoted deliv­ery time is 35 to 45 min­utes and orders are ready for pick up 15 to 20 min­utes after they are called in.”

Her­man said most Jet’s Pizza loca­tions have a 5-mile deliv­ery radius, and the Sun­bury store will begin with that deliv­ery zone. The west­ern edge of the deliv­ery area will be I-71, the east­ern edge will be Route 605, deliv­er­ies will be made as far as Big Wal­nut Road to the south, and as far north as Rose­crans Road.

“Because we are sur­rounded by 55 mph roads Bran­don and I hope to adjust the deliv­ery zone as we get a bet­ter idea of the area that’s fea­si­ble to ser­vice,” Her­man said.

Her­man said the Lewis Cen­ter Jet’s Pizza loca­tion is the only Jet’s as of right now that has dine in ser­vice, and that store is close enough to the Sun­bury com­mu­nity to be acces­si­ble for a fam­ily trip out for pizza.

Her­man also noted that all Jet’s Pizza stores have a tra­di­tion of part­ner­ing with schools and ser­vic­ing school lunches; and the Colum­bus area Jet’s is a cor­po­rate test mar­ket for a new wheat flour to give stu­dents health­ier lunches.

”As Jet’s Pizza Man­agers, both Bran­don and myself are ded­i­cated to cre­at­ing an excep­tional prod­uct and deliv­er­ing it with excel­lent cus­tomer ser­vice,” Her­man said. “We ask noth­ing more than to be given the oppor­tu­nity to pro­vide just that for the res­i­dents of Sun­bury and the greater Big Wal­nut community.”

Jet’s Pizza serves build your own and spe­cialty piz­zas, bone­less chicken wings, breads and dip­ping sauces, sal­ads, subs, and more.
