The Pizza Hot chain has restored a production facility damaged during a Russian strike on Lviv on November 19, 2025, the company’s founder Roman Bodnar said.

"We are reopening today. It has been 39 days — and we are back in operation," Bodnar wrote on Instagram on December 28.

He added that the company is beginning to build a large nationwide network.

Bodnar also published a video showing the reconstruction of the damaged workshop, the installation of new equipment, and preparations for reopening Pizza Hot outlets in Lviv.

Pizza Hot began operating on August 28, 2025. Earlier, Bodnar said the company plans to develop a national chain of mini pizzerias and expand to 1,000 outlets within three years.

As of November 19, the chain operated 19 budget pizza takeaway locations in Lviv, Drohobych and Stryi.
