Papa Johns Pizza to Germany? Well....the announcement came in the past week....at least fourteen initially will open, with the first up in the NW region of Germany.
Germany and American-style pizza? This was a big deal in the 1980s, and Pizza Hut walked in to create their image here. In the past three years, Dominos bought into a German chain operation, and set itself up as a competitor.
More room for Papa Johns? Maybe.
The problem I see is that after you've had an Italian-style pizza, made by Germans at local pizzerias.....it's hard to really say the American-style is better. Then you do the pricing of a XL American-type pizza, and Germans kinda shake their head to some degree.
I do see a market in some of the metropolitan cities....especially those with a big traffic-flow of pedestrians. I could even see a Papa Johns operation in the Wiesbaden train-station area making a fair profit.
