This bold initiative, the brainchild of HGreg’s marketing team, was initially aimed at creating an original idea for April Fool’s Day. The excitement sparked by the idea resulted in a collaboration with Pizza Salvatoré—a Québec-based company known for its daring marketing strategies—in order to make the project a reality for Pizza Week.
