Marco’s Pizza opened in Toledo, Ohio, in 1978. Founder Pat Giammarco moved to the United States from Italy when he was 4 years old. As an adult, he wanted to bring an authentic Italian taste to the pizzas he served in his pizzeria. Marco’s Pizza does just that. Today, there are more than 150 Marco’s Pizza stores in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Nevada, Arizona, South Carolina, and Florida. The Indianapolis store opened in 2006. Marco’s Pizza is not only dedicated to serving customers, but to serving the larger community as well. Marco’s has donated to community causes such as the Indianapolis Police Department, Habitat for Humanity, the IUPUI Honors Club Dodgeball Tournament, and Rebuilding the Wall.
