History
The first three stores opened in 1986 in Abbotsford, British Columbia, and operated under the brand "Panagopoulos 2 for 1 Pizza Place".[1] The chain's name was soon shortened to "Panagopoulos Pizza Place", then later to "Panagopoulos", and then finally to "Panago" in 2000.[2]
Panago’s head office remains in Abbotsford, while the Ontario regional office (302A - 109 Atlantic Ave) has closed. Additionally, the New Westminster State-of-the-Art Call Centre at 11 - 8th St. (https://www.cutlerdc.com/projects/panago-pizza-call-centre-new-westminster-bc/) terminated its 10-year lease early in October 2025 due to the pandemic's lasting effects.
By the late 2000s, expansion efforts were heavily focused in the province of Ontario. The first urban Toronto location opened at Bay and Gerrard in April 2007.[3]
A vegan menu was available as of 2023.[4][citation needed]
