History

The restaurant chain opened its first store in Albury, New South Wales in 1987 by local businessman Tom Potter. Eagle Boys' national headquarters are located in the Brisbane suburb of West End.
The franchise was originally called Beagle Boys Pizza and featured images of the Walt Disney characters in the logo and pamphlets. Presumably Disney threatened to sue which bought about the dropping of the "B" giving birth to Eagle Boys Pizza.
The company specialises in 2 minute "express" pizzas between 5:30 and 8:00 pm, which is achieved by constantly remaking their four most popular pizzas and keeping them in a warmer for sale up to thirty minutes after they have been made.
As of 2007, Eagle Boys Pizza had celebrated 20 years in the industry. It was announced also that they are expanding to an additional 40 stores in 2007.^[2]
They have over 4,001 employees as of 2007.
