Description

Specialties

Headquartered in Toledo; OH Marco’s Pizza (Marco’s Franchising, LLC) is the fastest-​growing pizza company in the U.S. (based on the number of stores signed into development since 2007). Marco’s was founded by Pasquale «Pat» Giammarco and is committed to making Ah! thentic Italian pizza with fresh ingredients. The company has grown from its roots as a beloved Ohio brand to operate more than 200 stores in 18 states and the Bahamas. Marco’s is now recognized as one of the top-​performing restaurant franchises in the country.

Giammarco focused on three key areas: dough, sauce and cheese. He established three standards in order to deliver the consistent levels of quality and freshness expected of Marco’s products: dough made fresh daily in each store; a proprietary sauce recipe that blends imported spices and three types of vine-​ripened tomatoes; and an exclusive blend of three fresh cheeses (never frozen, unlike many pizza chains).

History

Established in 1978.

Marco’s founder, Pasquale «Pat» Giammarco moved to the U.S. from Italy with his family at age nine. Among the most precious possessions the family brought with them were the secrets of great Italian cooking so it’s not surprising the Giammarco’s promptly opened a pizzeria. As a child, working in the family business, young Pat was well schooled in the family art of making authentic Italian pizza.

In 1978, Pat put this invaluable education to work, opening the first Marco’s Pizza store in Toledo Ohio. Staying true to the family tradition of using only the finest, freshest ingredients and a secret sauce recipe Pat developed and refined with his father, Marco’s quickly became the local favorite. Today, Marco’s pizza is still made the same authentic Italian way.

Marco’s first store in middle-​Tennessee opened in 2010 with plans for growth over the next several years. Franchisee and Franklin resident Stuart Field opened the Cool Springs location in May of 2011.
