In this Salute to American Success, we're taking a look at Marco's Pizza, a pizza restaurant franchise headquartered in Toledo, Ohio. The company focuses on using fresh ingredients to create authentic Italian pizza. Marco's Pizza was founded in 1978 by Pasquale "Pat" Giammarco.
When he was nine-years-old, Giammarco emigrated from Italy to the United States and grew up working at his family's pizzeria. Eventually, he began his quest to open his own pizza business, learning everything he could about the art of pizza making.
