Shawn Randazzo, Who Helped Popularize Detroit-Style Pizza in the U.S., Has Died | Eater Detroit

"Founded by a two-time World Pizza Champion who helped bring Detroit’s square pizza to national prominence, this company popularized the term “Detroit-style” for the square pie and turned the regional format into a nationwide trend. Its founder won the World Champion Pizza Maker title at the 2012 International Pizza Expo for his version of the square pie, then worked as a consultant training other restaurant owners in his techniques. The business also became a major retailer of steel pizza pans and will continue to operate and ship nationally via Goldbelly." - Brenna Houck
