Our Story
Three Childhood Friends. One Pizza Brand.
It started with a friendship, hip-hop, and an idea that sounded simple: “What if we made pizza?”
Zero experience. Plenty of trial and error. Months of R&D. And that was only the start.
Brotherhood Before Pizza
Three friends who grew up together, raised on the same music. Too Phat, Poetic Ammo, Tupac. In 2025 they decided to build something of their own, together.
Pizza was not part of the plan yet.

“What If We Made Pizza?”

The First Dough? A Total Flop.
No point dressing it up. The first dough flopped. Nowhere near what they had pictured, and further still from anything they were willing to serve someone else.
That left two options: stop, or go and learn it properly. They picked the second.
Learn. Make. Fail. Improve. Repeat.
Not one class and done. It was a loop, repeated until the taste was finally right.

Learning from Cik Wira
Qilloz learned the fundamentals of pizza making from Cik Wira of Adella Oven.

Months of R&D
Not a week or two. Months of testing, adjusting, scrapping and starting over.

A second teacher, found on YouTube
Later they learned from an Italian pizza chef they first discovered through YouTube.
- 04
A recipe of their own
What came out of it was Qilloz's own dough, sauce and topping combinations.
