Client Spotlight: From Christchurch to the Sunshine Coast with Pizza Oven Club
Meet Paweł and Monika
This month we're shining the spotlight on one of our clients, Pizza Oven Club. Paweł and Monika design and hand-make wood-fired masonry pizza ovens in small batches, right here in South East Queensland at their workshop in Landsborough on the Sunshine Coast.
If you've ever stood around a wood-fired oven with a drink in hand, waiting for the next pizza to come out blistered and bubbling, you already understand what they're building. It's not just an oven. It's the reason everyone heads outside and stays a little longer.
From Christchurch to the Sunshine Coast
Pizza Oven Club's story started across the ditch. Before the Sunshine Coast, Paweł and Monika spent years designing, building and refining Kiwi Pizza Ovens in Christchurch, New Zealand.
Oven after oven, they learned what actually matters: enough refractory mass to store heat, proper insulation to keep it in, and a build method that works the same way every time. Over 500 ovens later, with some of the earliest still cooking after more than 10 years, that thinking became the Pizza Oven Club system they make today.
What we love most is how hands-on they are. Paweł leads product design, production and customer support. Monika casts and finishes components alongside him, and looks after marketing and business development. When you buy from Pizza Oven Club, you deal directly with the people who make your oven.
Moving a business across the Tasman is no small job. We've been working alongside Paweł and Monika through their move from New Zealand to Australia, helping them get the numbers side of a brand-new Australian business set up properly from day one. That means they can spend their time where it counts: in the workshop, making ovens.
Build it yourself, or have it built for you
Pizza Oven Club offers the same core oven two ways:
| Option | What you get | Price (incl GST) |
|---|---|---|
| Wood Fired Pizza Oven Kit | Prefabricated components, materials, instructions and support to assemble it yourself. No brick dome to build from scratch. | $3,690 |
| Ready-made Wood Fired Pizza Oven | The same oven, assembled and finished in their Sunshine Coast workshop, in a plain or brick-finished entrance. | From $5,690 |
And it does a lot more than pizza. Fire it once, cook pizza at full heat, then use the falling heat to bake bread and roast meats and veggies, with up to 18 hours of slow cooking from a single firing.
Every oven comes with a 5-year structural warranty and Australia-wide delivery, and you can book a workshop visit in Landsborough to see the ovens being made before you buy.
Why we love working with businesses like this
We spend most of our days with pubs, cafes and restaurants, and Pizza Oven Club speaks our language: good food, good fire and good people around the table.
They're also a great example of something we see a lot in Queensland small business. A founder-led team, making a real product by hand, in small batches, and talking directly to every customer. That's a business built on craft and care, and it deserves numbers that are just as solid.
Because when you're busy casting domes and answering customer calls, you belong in your business, not out the back buried in the books. That's where we come in.
