Marco's Pizza has opened a location in Lee's Summit, Missouri, under the helm of franchisees Jered Jerome and Andy Welch. It's their fourth location, and they have a goal of opening 15 more locations in Kansas City, according to a press release.

Welch brings 20 years of multi-unit management with a rival pizza brand, while Jerome has built a successful business with Anytime Fitness and Senior Helpers.

"Marco's Pizza is a 'People First' business, and we are passionate about keeping that mentality with our team, customers and our community," Jerome said in the press release. "That community starts with us and our opening team. Our VP of operations, Matt Waisner, joins us from Andy's previous pizza business, and our GM, Jeremy Dale, started out as a driver at our Shawnee location and has worked his way up for the opportunity to run the show in Lee's Summit."

"We also love that Marco's has something for everyone in the family," Welch said. "We only use quality ingredients in our recipes and are excited to be serving up only the best of the best to the pizza lovers of the Kansas City area."
