 Excelsior Legacy Businesses

Little Joe's Pizza - Legacy Business 
This month the Small Business Commission awarded Little Joe's Pizza recognition as a Legacy Business and will be added to the Legacy Business Directory.  Little Joe's has served Excelsior families for over 50 years, first owned by Joseph Russo who opened in 1958, the restaurant is now operated by Fred and Patti Rodriguez. Fred and Patti applied for Legacy Business status on the recommendation of Stephanie Cajina, the executive director of the Excelsior Action Group. Cajina suggested that the program could help the business negotiate a longer lease and recognize to Joseph Russo, the business’s founder and the owner of the building’s owner.
The business was a stop on Mayor Ed Lee’s final visit to the neighborhood as part of the Excelsior Holiday Walking tour, on Friday, Dec. 8.
The Small Business Commission approved Little Joe’s for Legacy Business status on Monday, Dec. 11, 2017.
Businesses in this program are eligible to receive grants funding to upgrade storefronts and hire employees.
