A new place in Kansas City is ready to open with plans to open similar spots in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Miami, London, Houston, and New York City.
TASTY PLANS
And now, according to a source close to the three-time Super Bowl winner, the 34-year-old has been inspired by his love of Italy to open his own pizza joint.
Travis always drops into Geraci’s Slice Shop in Cleveland when he’s back in Ohio and, after a series of successful meetings with investors, he’s set to push ahead.
He hopes to open primarily in Kansas City, before expanding in Chicago, New York City, Miami, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Detroit.
Travis, says the insider, will put $2 million of his own money into the plans, with the aim of the investment group adding another $3 million.
On his recent trip to Lake Como with girlfriend Taylor Swift, Travis discovered new ways to make pizza and “fell more in love” with them.
Talks have been continuing for “many weeks” with the plan to open the first place in Spring 2025.
DESIGN DETAILS
“Investing in the food industry is something that is very important to him,” said the source who added Travis and Mahomes regularly seek out tasty pizzerias when they’re on the road.
Travis, though, is not only keen on producing great food, he’s also keeping a keen eye on interior design.
“We are talking about pizza joints inspired by Italy, very classy spots, and with a special touch of Italy’s landscape and vibe in the décor,” he continued.

Travis, whose favorite pizza is pepperoni, is a big foodie and is very keen on expanding his ever-growing portfolio of business interests.
As revealed by The U.S. Sun, Travis is eyeing up investing in an Italian vineyard with mom Donna and also making a move into the entertainment industry.
He recently had dinner with the Rock where he discussed breaking into Hollywood. Tinseltown bosses have floated the idea of a $100 million action move with brother Jason.
Their podcast New Heights continues to attract serious sponsorship offers, while the likes of Nike and Singapore Airlines want him to perform ambassadorial roles for their brands.
“Travis is really excited about this project,” concluded the insider. “He can’t wait to invest in one of the foods he loves the most.”
