Four Decades of Gumby's Pizza: A Story That Goes Beyond What's In The Oven

Nov 4, 2026

New York City, New York Nov 3, 2026 (Issuewire.com) - For decades, Gumby's Pizza has been known for what's coming out of the oven. But beyond the pizza is a business history spanning four decades, reflecting the importance of brand recognition, commercial relationships, and the value of a familiar name.

Since its beginnings in 1985, Gumby's Pizza has become part of a broader story about the restaurant industry, brand identity, and the commercial significance of names that remain recognizable over time.

Behind the familiar name is a history that reaches beyond the restaurant industry, touching on business interests, brand recognition, and the value of commercial relationships built over time. Some names become familiar. Others become part of a legacy that surpasses their original purpose.

"This isn't about a slice of the pie; this is about the WHOLE pie," said Chance Hippler, Partner/Owner.

Four decades of business history cannot be captured in a single headline. And sometimes, the most interesting part of the story is what happens in the kitchen.

Arca, Canino off to good start in 7th Asean chessfest

Mindanao's biggest hope for a grandmaster title Christian Gian Carlo Arca of Zamboanga City and Ruelle Canino of Cagayan de Oro City were off to a good start  in the 7th Asean Individual Chess Championships being hosted by Governor Henry Oaminal Sr and the province of Misamis Occidental. Both full-pledged International Masters, Arca and Canino are gearing to sustain their winning ways in round 2 of the men and women's open divisions, respectively on Wednesday at the Mildives-like Asenso Misamis Occidental Resort and Adventure Park (AMORAP) in Sinacaban town. Only seeded 24th, the white-wielding 2349-rated Arca shocked the 4th seed International Master Shrivatri Anuj (2450) from India in a wild attacking game, while the 9th seed Canino overwhelmed unrated compatriot Kate Nicole Ordizo on Tuesday's opening round action. So impressive was Arca's handling of the London system which saw him giving up a Bishop in exchange of two unstoppable passed pawns that led to Anuj's eventual resignation. "I think I'm playing now with more composure after my heartbreaking experience here last year. I'm supposed to earn an outright GM title during the 6th Asean but mishandled a winning position in the final round against a Woman FIDE Master from Mongolia," the 18-year-old Canino told the Manila Times. Canino's mentor and Philippine Olympiad teammate Woman Grandmaster Janelle Mae Frayna, however, suffered an upset loss to another compatriot in the Samarkand Olympiad in Woman International Master Marie Antoinette San Diego. This, as the No.1 seed Indian WIM Bordoloi Pratitee held on with a hard-earned win opposite local foe WFM Jemaicah Yap Mendoza. Second seed WFM Thi Mail Hung Nguyen of Vietnam also prevailed over Mhage Gerriahlou Sebastian of the Philippines. In men's open,  Vietnamese IM Quoc Hey Nguyen lived up to his top seed billing by defeating Filipino IM Mark Jay Bacojo, even as GM Dashzegve Sharavdorj of Mongolia and GM Darwin Laylo of the Philippines were slowed down to contrasting draws by  IM Jan Emmanuel Garcia of the Philippines and IM Ganzong Amartuvshin of Mongolia, respectively. GM Duck HOA Nguyen of Vietnam also split the point with IM Miroslav Vlasenko of the Federation, as the country's youngest GM Daniel Cuizon breezed through the opening round versus fellow Filipino Darry Bernardo on board 13. "It's still in the first round but it was unforgettable and very memorable to me," enthused untitled Filipino Edmundo Gatus after halving the point with the youthful Thailander IM Prin Laohawirapap. Laohawirapap (2381), who is mentored by Filipino FM and chess vlogger Daniel Caruso, rose to chess prominence after his upset victory over Indian super GM and world No. 9 Arjun Erigaisi (2759) during the opening round of the 46th FIDE Chess Olympiad in Samarkand recently.
