'Pizza Project' finds loads of independent shops near Minneapolis

The Minnesota Daily: Graduate students at the Humphrey Institute of Public Affairs teamed up with the Metro Independent Business Alliance on a study that found more independent pizza operations near Minneapolis than researchers expected. The study, titled "The Pizza Project!" sought to find options for consumers to buy pizza at locally owned businesses versus large chain stores.

 

"A lot of the responses we received were that people would love a list of all the local independents," said graduate student Megan O'Meara, one of four study authors.
