The nation’s most-loved and most-trusted pizza brand, Marco’s Pizza, opened its newest location in College Station on Feb. 10. Situated at 700 University Dr. E., locals can expect a Primo Italian pizza experience that uses the freshest, highest-quality ingredients.
The Marco’s Pizza of College Station is owned and operated by local entrepreneur Anand Agarwala. Before beginning his Marco’s journey, Agarwala worked in corporate America for 14 years before deciding to pursue his dream of being a business owner. This is Agarwala’s fourth Marco’s Pizza, with two located in Killeen and another in College Station.
“My father was a businessman and I always admired his work ethic and entrepreneurial spirit, which is why I wanted to open my own business,” says Agarwala. “When I was introduced to Marco’s Pizza, I saw the opportunity to bring delicious, authentic pizza to Texas and knew it would be a great fit in the community.”
As the only national pizza brand founded by a native Italian, Marco’s has made its name in the growing $47 billion pizza industry by producing fresh, authentic, and handmade Italian quality pizza. Italian food is famous for its quality servings and Marco’s prides itself on crafting every pizza by using ingredients that are fresh. At a time when 91 percent of Americans eat pizza once a month, more people are increasingly choosing the quality pizza that’s synonymous with Marco’s name.
Marco’s Pizza started in Ohio. The founder, Pasquale “Pat” Giammarco, grew up making pizzas with his father after they immigrated to the United States from Sulmona, Italy. Fast forward several years later, he created Marco’s Pizza
to capture the Italian spirit and flavors he was raised on.
The menu at Marco’s Pizza in College Station will feature a mix of classic pizzas and innovative specialty pizzas like the white cheesy, deluxe, and all meat, along with a variety of salads with croutons made daily. Customers can also choose from wholesome subs on Italian white bread, hearth baked for authentic European flavor, along with creations like the meatball bake, chicken dippers, and cheesy bread. With carryout, delivery, app, and online ordering services, Marco’s offers the convenience of picking up a quick meal or having it delivered to your door.
Opening a new store every three and a half days on average, Marco’s Pizza is committed to continued growth and increasing its presence internationally by late 2020. As America’s most-loved and most-trusted pizza brand, Marco’s has carved out a niche in the industry for authentic Italian quality pizza, known for its fresh dough made daily onsite, a proprietary cheese blend that is fresh, never frozen, and a secret original pizza sauce recipe from its founder Pat Giammarco.
