Matthew Loney, CEO &amp; President of Stevi  Bs Pizza Buffet

Matt recently joined the ranks of young CEOs looking to make their mark on the Atlanta restaurant franchise sector. Often times, an industry welcomes a fresh perspective on strategy and operations, and at just 36 years old, Loney has plenty to offer.
 
An impressive resume backs his aspirations.  In 2003, he graduated with distinction from the University of Iowa College of Law and quickly found himself in the world of fast dining. After a short time as vice president of the distinguished Mellow Mushroom Pizza chain, Loney claimed his current title of president and CEO of Stevi Bs Pizza. He now looks to further the growth of the neighborhood pizza buffet.
 
Stevi Bs Pizza currently commands a strong presence in the Georgia region with 27 locations in the state including 10 locations in the Atlanta DMA. The rapid expansion of the brand is made possible, in part, by the private equity group Argonne, which is the exclusive franchisor of southern favorite Krystal, the largest franchisee of IHOP and an Applebees franchisee of 100 units. A seasoned player in restaurant franchising, Argonne seeks to expand Stevi Bs into key markets throughout Alabama, Florida and Tennessee.
