Company at a glance

Big Mamma Group is an Italian restaurant company founded in 2015 by Tigrane Seydoux and Victor Lugger with one simple dream: changing people's lives with pizza.

From our very first trattoria in Paris to 37 locations across 10 countries today, we serve 100% homemade Italian dishes made with ingredients sourced directly from small Italian producers — think Prosciutto di Parma from Stefano Borchini, San Marzano tomatoes from Paolo Ruggiero, flour from Antimo Caputo. Everything is served in jaw-dropping spaces, at fair prices, and always with a huge smile.

Our Squadra of 2,700+ talents spans France, Italy, Spain, the UK, Belgium, Germany, Monaco, the UAE, Mexico, and beyond — and keeps growing.

We also launched Napoli Gang in 2020, our digital food brand bringing the same crazy love for Italian food straight to your door.

But food is only half the story. We believe hospitality can be a real career, not just a student job — and we're committed to building an inclusive, inspiring workplace where talents grow and shape the future of the industry. In 2018, we became a proud B-Corp, reinforcing our commitment to sustainability, social responsibility, and human-driven growth.

Big Mamma is not just a restaurant group. It's a movement made of passion, purpose and a lot of pizza, of course.
