The restaurant began an aggressive advertising campaign to be known, and had rapid acceptance in their city. Convinced that his business could expand to other cities in the U.S., the Carney brothers contacted a Wichita architect, Richard D. Burke, to design the new premises with a red tile roof and a cap, with which they could distinguish themselves from the competition. In the mid 1960’s began to open franchises Pizza Hut, reaching 310 locations in 1969. More
