About this location
About Vocelli Pizza
The Vocelli Story begins in a mining town in Zonguldak, Turkey where Varol Ablak was born. His father was a mining engineer so Varol’s childhood was spent moving from one mining town to another as his dad followed the work.
This journey took them from Turkey to Essen, Germany and then on to Lynn Lake, Canada in northern Manitoba. When Varol was 8 years old, the Ablak family came to the United States in 1969 to St Paul, Virginia. The moving continued to mining towns in West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky and eventually settling in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Varol planned to follow in his father’s footsteps and become an engineer, but after he completed three years of college in the industrial engineering program at the University of Pittsburgh, he decided the engineering life was not for him. Wanting to start his own business and fueled by an entrepreneurial spirit, he left college in search of a more rewarding path. One that didn't leave him at the mercy of a job transfer or a company layoff.
That search led him to a job washing dishes for a local pizza restaurant in Biloxi, Mississippi. It was there that Varol fell in love with the pizza business and the fun of succeeding with a hard working team.
