Marco's Pizza franchisees Brandon Hudson and Damion Mason will open their sixth restaurant in the Richmond, Virginia, area. The move marks the 11th Marco's location in the regio, according to a Richmond Biz Sense report.

The Marco's Pizza will be located in a former Pizza Hut building at 5817 Midlothian Turnpike in South Richmond.

"Talking to some of the people in that area, they really missed that pizza place," Hudson told the news outlet. "We felt like we could fill that void."

Hudson and Mason said they plan to put $500,000 in renovations into the space. They expect to open in October or November and have committed to another five Virginia locations.
