The restaurant chain opened its first store in
Albury, New South Wales in1987 by local businessman Tom Potter. Eagle Boys' national headquarters are located in theBrisbane suburb of West End.Eagle Boys set up in
New Zealand in the mid-nineties with 55 stores, and operated for some years. They were later all sold toRestaurant Brands in2000 and converted toPizza Hut .The company specialized in 2 minute "express" pizzas (limited range of 4) between 5:30 and 8:00 pm, which was achieved by constantly remaking their four most popular pizzas and keeping them in a warmer for sale up to eight minutes after they have been made. However, as of 2008, Eagle Boys have discontinued the express line in favor of a similar promotion "Ready, Fresh Go!", featuring 2 of the express pizzas and a "Manager's Special'.
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. [http://www.qbr.com.au/index.cfm?cp=link/newspaper QBR March 2007 print edition (pg. 4)]
