Brad Niemeier founded Azzip Pizza in 2014 after having won the Burton D. Morgan Business Plan Competition at Purdue University in 2012, where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Hospitality and Tourism Management. After two years of research and development the first location opened in February 2014 in Evansville, Indiana. After only seven months the second location opened in Newburgh, Indiana. Niemeier's restaurant concept was resoundingly successful. The fast casual restaurant's popularity was confirmed when it was awarded "Best Restaurant Opened in 2014" by the Evansville Living magazine.
In April 2015 Azzip Pizza was the Gold Winner of the Evansville Courier & Press Readers' Choice Awards - making it the "Best Place for Pizza" in Evansville. Later that year the first Illinois location opened in Champaign, Illinois, followed by another location in Evansville.
In 2016 the management moved into its new Evansville Headquarters. Azzip Pizza's fifth and first Kentucky location opened in the summer of 2016 in Bowling Green, Kentucky, underlining the Illinois-Indiana-Kentucky tri-state area's importance to local businesses. A sixth location was opened in Terre Haute, Indiana in the fall of 2016.
An announcement was made in June 2017 of the opening seventh location in Bloomington, Indiana that is scheduled for fall 2017.
