Hungry Howie's Pizza has opened a Tennessee store – its fifth location in Jefferson City, a news release said.

Franchisee Jason Jones has more than 23 years of foodservice experience, including that of the first Hungry Howie's he opened in Morristown, Tennessee 13 years ago. Jones plans to open additional with the brand in the future.

"Hungry Howie's is the only pizza I will eat and when you take a bite of your first slice, you'll understand why," Jones said in the release. "I'm thrilled to open my second Hungry Howie's pizza location. I've enjoyed introducing the high-quality Flavored Crust pizzas to Hamblen County in Morristown. I can't wait for the Jefferson community to fall in love with the brand as much as I did."

The brand will continue to implement health and safety preventative measures recommended by the CDC. It is standard practice across all Hungry Howie's locations, including mask and glove requirements, frequent washing of hands with soap, disinfecting frequently touched surfaces and mandatory food safety and sanitation procedures.

The newly opened store is on East Broadway Boulevard. It is one of more than 525 locations of the brand in 21 states.
