Big Apple Pizza was founded in 1986 by Haim Kedem, in the Jerusalem mall, Dorot Rishonim. Kedem had spent many years in
New York City and upon
moving to Israel decided to open a pizza shop to bring the piece of NYC with him. In 1996, Kedem expanded the business outside of Jerusalem for the first time, opening his first pizza shop in
Eilat. In 2000, Kedem died and left the business to his two sons, who still run the business. ==Branches==
