Someone should reallyadd Sweden on the map of international restaurants. I know at least three restaurants in Stockholm and it's possible that it is more restaurants in the country. I think Pizza Hut has been in Sweden for at least ten years. Please add it since I don't know how to do it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.226.95.97 (talk) 19:50, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
The article currently says: "Pizza Hut is relocating its headquarters to Legacy Office Park in nearby Plano when the lease on its current building, which it has occupied since 1995, expires on December 31, 2010." Since 12/31/10 has passed, that sentence is obviously inaccurate. I called Pizza Hut, they tell me they're going to move next Friday, and I'm going to amend the article to reflect that. I suspect that my phone call might be categorized as "original research" and thus uncitable in a Wikipedia article, but I'm hoping that that my fellow editors will let the rewrite stand for a week, at which time the article can be revised to cite their new headquarters. HMishkoff (talk) 21:28, 7 January 2011 (UTC)
They did move on Friday -- but I know that only because I called and asked them, it was pretty much of a stealth move, I didn't see anything in the press (and they haven't even updated the address on their website yet). I went ahead and changed their HQ to Plano because I did finally manage to find one article to cite, but surely somebody can find something better. HMishkoff (talk) 02:11, 19 January 2011 (UTC)
Pizza Hut offers desserts, which this article does not list.[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8807:A781:2E00:BD9E:FAF2:A0FE:6972 (talk) 00:56, 17 November 2023 (UTC)

This page is only showing me lists of countries that have pizza huts, where did the article go? I thought maybe someone blanked it, but there hasn't been an edit since January. The snare (talk) 04:21, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
Ah, no. That's the talk page that hasn't been edited. Anonymous user 71.42.191.58 blanked it. I see he/she was previously blocked and is at it again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by The snare (talk • contribs) 04:33, 7 March 2011 (UTC)
Pizza Hut initially went public in January 1969 not 1972 and with approximately 100 locations. This was preceeded with a "pooling of interests" in December 1968 when all the francisees that wanted to participate exchanged their Pizza Huts for Pizza Hut stock. I was one of those persons. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wildduck99 (talk • contribs) 02:12, 1 October 2011 (UTC)
Is there anyway to edit the map. Pizza Hut is in Vietnam (at least it is in Saigon). I was over there in December 2008 and saw it personally as well a KFC.
I know there is at least two Pizza Hut restaurants in Stockholm, Sweden. So the map showing countries with Pizza Hut needs to be updated. (62.20.195.195 (talk) 20:52, 15 April 2012 (UTC))
There is a Pizza Hut restaurant in Sofia, Bulgaria. Please update your map.--130.204.204.44 (talk) 08:30, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
Pizza Hut's first commercial advertising was a radio advertisement on KLEO AM. In a few short years in Wichita Kansas Pizza Hut introduced Food Truck delivery. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ICT1973 (talk • contribs) 20:08, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

If you Believe in any of these; Human Rights, Free Speech, Marriage Equality, The Right to Live a Happy fulfilling life, The Right to Defend yourself against Harm, and I'm sure there are many more I can list. However my points is, if you believe in any of this, then you will not be going to pizza hut until they make this right. Everyone should re-post this story until Pizza Hut has satisfied the consumer who supports this poor man. Its a shame, the way they havent even made a public statement in regards to this story. I am allowed to carry mace with me while I work...My company gave it to me. The driver for any Pizza Delivery should be given mace as well.

There are numerous Pizza Hut restaurants in Gothenburg, not only Stockholm. Map really needs to be updated! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.224.10.221 (talk) 18:29, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
Pizza Hut now have stores in the Republic of Ireland, so the world map listing locations requires updating. I would do it myself but I have never modified graphics on Wikipedia before.

Let's get this article sourced within a month — say by November 7, 2013 — lest the unsourced stuff be challenged and removed. Thanks, GeorgeLouis (talk) 19:01, 7 October 2013 (UTC)
Please write request to map updates here, in this section (or write a subsection) and do not create a new section for every request. This in order to avoid that the talk page becomes unnecessarily cluttered. Pizza Hut's official list for where it has restaurants around the world: http://www.pizzahut.com/international.html According to Norwegian Wikipedia, Pizza hut is also present there (although there are only two restaurants in total).MRqtH2 (talk) 16:25, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
Hi guys. Here's a major cleanup log, which I'm logging here for use in fanservice sites like Wikia. I performed line editing for WP:NPOV and conciseness; I relocated concept info from Products to Concept and created a photo gallery; I reduced WP:TRIVIA WP:NOTDIR to a point that is hopefully closer to WP:N. I deleted a bunch of trivia that just isn't notable, and I know there's a lot more to go. They're a megacorporation so everything they do has a WP:RS but not everything they do provides an impact upon the world, defines the state of the art, or is significant compared to all history or to all competition. Maybe there should be a Reception section with culinary reviews. Thanks. — Smuckola (Email) (Talk) 03:35, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
Pizza Hut logo has changed as of 19th November, 2014. Please upload the new logo
The article currently claims American style 'red roof' premises exist in Britain, but I don't know of any and would be surprised if they did - the UK format is very different, consisting of high street restaurants indistinguishable from any other UK restaurant chain apart from the signage. I'm going to add a citation request. --Ef80 (talk) 14:56, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
Many Americans probably have no idea that Germans tend to confuse that special kind of roof with a hat (German: Hut). Some Germans even call the restaurant "Pizza Hut" ('pItsa 'hu:t). I find it funny that this is nowhere mentioned in the article. The ancient logo depicted in the article (with the bignosed guy wearing a hat) might even suggest that this ambiguity is (or was) created on purpose. -andy 2.242.147.153 (talk) 00:27, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

The WingStreet article was split off from this one some years ago, but I'm proposing it be re-merged back in based on three factors. Firstly, that there are no standalone WingStreet stores; the one experimental attempt at it was a failure and closed the following year. Plans many have been to expand the brand to more independent stores, but that never happened, and isn't worthy of a separate article. This means that it is not a separate chain by any meaningful definition. Even the wingstreet.com web address redirects to Pizza Hut's website.
Secondly, that it is not a standalone subsidiary, just a branding used by Pizza Hut at locations that have wings on the menu; indeed, there are posts in the the archives about the lack of independence.
Finally, based on those facts, the assertion that restaurants are "co-located" is an erroneous one; there is no such thing as a WingStreet restaurant location. There's Pizza Hut locations that have wings on the menu. The current branding guidelines (since the 2019 return of the classic logo) acknowledge that and don't call for specific WingStreet signage. In short, WingStreet isn't a restaurant chain, it's the branding for Pizza Hut's wing menu, and not independently notable. oknazevad (talk) 16:21, 28 December 2020 (UTC)
Pizza Hut Pakistan doesn’t appear to be independently notable but could be merged as a paragraph here. Mccapra (talk) 22:37, 1 January 2021 (UTC)

Please update the many more countries have had Pizza Hut stores.
The link to all the countries is here: https://www.yum.com/wps/portal/yumbrands/Yumbrands/company/our-brands/pizza-hut
It has been over half a year since I posted. I don't think it has changed yet...

Greek here. Map needs to be updated. https://www.ekathimerini.com/economy/255288/pizza-hut-exits-greece-hit-by-the-pandemic/
Though there is an operating business known as Red Corner Pizza that makes similar pizza in Heraklion, Crete. I don't have a source to verify this claim but I know that the owner used to work at the old Pizza Hut restaurant of the city.

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
hello i think that it would be nice for our work on Pizza Hut's largest rebrand in 2014 to be recognised. I had previously made an edit which was struck down as I had not familiarised myself with guidelines and I totally understand why.
I had used an article from our website about it: https://www.weareharrison.com/harrison-design-one-of-dubais-top-ten-most-beautiful-restaurants/ (URL doesn't match article content, something we'll fix) and I can see why this was rightly rejected.
But this has also been covered in design publications e.g https://www.hospitalityandcateringnews.com/2013/10/pizza-hut-restaurants-unveil-multi-million-pound-makeover/ and https://www.divcom.co.uk/casual-dining-interior-design-awards-finalists-announced/ where our award nomination for one of our refurbed Pizza Hut restaurants was nominated for an award
What i wanted to add was that Harrison, the design and branding agency, had a noteworthy role in Pizza Hut's largest-ever rebrand. We worked on rebranding Pizza Hut in the UK on the theme of Americanness to set Pizza Hut apart from their Italian-themed competitors which I think adds some niche information about a distinct brand feature of Pizza Hut in the UK
Clearly I have a COI here and it would not be appropriate for me to make this edit myself.
I hope you consider my request and I would love to see our hard work recognised.
