Little Caesars aims to expand its presence in the New England region and has set a goal of 50 units across Boston and Providence by 2026.

The family-owned chain has franchise and company-stores in each of the 50 U.S. states and across 27 countries and territories, according to a press release.

"New England's metropolitan cities — Boston and Providence especially — are filled with aspiring entrepreneurs who value technology and innovation," Craig Sherwood, Little Caesars vice president of franchise development, said in the release. "Little Caesars has a long history of technological innovation, most recently marked by our Reserve-N-Ready strategy, which makes ordering pizza even easier with our mobile app and our famous self-service Pizza Portal® pickup. As we continue innovating to support our growth, we are confident that Boston and Providence entrepreneurs will find our business model to be the perfect fit."

The brand has 17 locations open and operating across the two cities.

Headquartered in Detroit, Michigan, Little Caesars was founded by Mike and Marian Ilitch in 1959 as a single, family-owned restaurant. Today, it is the third largest pizza chain in the world.
