Tops Pizza, Wandsworth High Street, London

Tops Pizza is a British pizza takeaway chain, with 39 stores in London and the south-east of the UK.[1][2]

The company opened its first store at 74 Fulham Palace Road in 1988, by British/Iranian Ali Morad Yazdi Nodoushani, then aged 28, and who had been a civil engineering student.[2][3] It is a private limited company.[4]

In 2009, the leaders of an Afghan criminal gang received long prison sentences for smuggling 230 Afghans into Europe, many to work in "branches of well-known franchises Tops Pizza, GoGo Pizza and Perfect Pizza across southern England".[5]

In 2014, staff were caught on CCTV climbing through the window of a closed Tops Pizza branch in Tunbridge Wells, after they forgot their keys.[6]
