Pizza Drop! (RAR!)

In this scenario ROB gives you ownership of a one of a kind Restaurant operation which takes this basic formula...
...to a truly global level: PIZZA DROP!
Pizza Drop has a series of a dozen space stations orbiting the earth. Each of which are toroids 8.5km in diameter and 850meters wide spinning to provide artificial gravity with a wheel like hub. Raw material is collected mostly from comets and asteroids collected by collector ships. The ring section on each is divided into five levels, with big windows and mirrors to provide sunlight in most situations and growlights to suppement when needed powered by batteries and a solar collector array. Inside most of these are (mostly) hydroponic farms growing a wide variety of plants including (but not limited too) basil, tea, cola nuts, sugar cane, peach, garlic, various other spice plants, peppers (hot and mild), spinach, onions, scallions, leeks, olives, potatoes, mushrooms (grown in special suspended mushroom racks) and most notably tomatoes and wheat. These are harvested by harvesting drones overseen by a small number of engineers and agronomists. Some of the plant matter is used to feed chickens, pigs, holstein cattle and water buffalo on pasture raised for their meat and their milk. The milk is fermented into cheese, the chicken is cured in various ways and the beef and pork mostly goes into making sausages. Each of the stations is somewhat specialized in it's secondary aspects of production (besides cattle, wheat and tomatoes) and they send unmanned supply ships between them docking delivering food. But one thing they all have in common is a facility were all the ingredients come together and are made into delicious pizzas.
Available online is an smart-phone app which allows people to order a Pizza from Pizza Drop. Once the Pizza is made, it is loaded into a drop pod (made in a factory on the dark side of the moon) and launched to land either at their address or their location. They'll reenter the atmosphere, areobrake, use parachutes and eventually springed landing gear allowing for a good safe touch down and opening. Each pod costs $50 and can contain up to ten pizzas in Pizza Boxes (which sell for $16 canadian dollars for a 20cm Pizza, $24 CAD for a 30cm pizza and $32 for a 40cm pizza, which comes with up to two toppings not including cheese for free with extra toppings costing $2 dollars extra per pizza) and up to four two liter bottles of Pizza Drop Cola or Peach Iced Tea. Each Pizza Drop drop pod has a radio tracker allowing you to track its course. There is a "arrived in 45 minutes or it's free" policy. Pizza Drop Pizzas are high quality stuff. Pizza Drop boxes have the Pizza Drop logo on them, which has a Space Trooper in Power Armor delivering pizza. Pizza Drop comercials either show this female space trooper fighting through hordes of Not-Klingons and Not-Borg in alien environments to deliver hot fresh Pizzas and more demonstrative commercials showing how Pizza Drop actually works. Pizza Drop has a staff of 2,500 employees, all of which are hard working men and women who want to make the best darn Pizzas they can and twelve surface to orbit shuttles to deliver.
The US, Canada, UK, Australia, Japan, Germany, France and China have agreed to let you operate your operations in return for a special deal allowing their heads of state (and heads of government in the case of the monarchies) one free drop pod of Pizza every day. The current US president has some desire to make extensive use of your services. Your facilities have breezed past the Health Inspections.
You currently live in a 200 square meter apartment in one of Pizza Drop's stations overseeing the cattle ranches in a dormatory complex which has a gym, rec rooms, swimming pool, video arcade, a grocery store and a sit down Pizza Drop place and Saul Meir's Kosher Chinese Noodle House for your nutritional needs.
