Little Caesars Opens New Location at Pearl Harbor Naval Base
Little Caesars, the third-largest pizza chain in the world, is thrilled to announce its latest restaurant at Pearl Harbor Naval Base. Partnering with the Navy Exchange Service Command (NEXCOM), Little Caesars brings its renowned Hot-N-Ready menu to service members and their families, enhancing dining options in military communities.
Community Focus and Military Support
Reflecting on its mission, Little Caesars has prioritized non-traditional expansions this year, especially in military towns that lack quick-service restaurants. Bryan Ketelhut, National Director of Non-Traditional and Development Services at Little Caesars, stated, "As we celebrate the grand opening at Pearl Harbor, we are honored to serve the dedicated community here. The addition of our brand is a way to support those who serve our country, honoring their commitment and sacrifice."
Commitment to Veterans
Little Caesars initiated its veterans program in 2006, inspired by the military service of its founder, Mike Ilitch. The initiative supports veterans transitioning to civilian life by providing the opportunity to start their own franchises. This program has successfully grown to include over 260 veteran franchisees, showcasing the brand's commitment to the military community.
Leading the New Pearl Harbor Location
John Brown, a former employee of NEXCOM, will lead operations at the new restaurant. He has extensive experience in the pizza industry since 1987 and began his journey with Little Caesars in 2019. Brown expressed enthusiasm for the new venture, stating, "Little Caesars adds significant value to our food court, and I’m confident many will embrace it as a staple here."
Expanding Dining Options
As consumer preferences shift towards quick, convenient meal options, Little Caesars is focusing on expanding its presence in non-traditional locations, including military bases, college campuses, amusement parks, and more. The launch of their popular Crazy Puffs™ fits perfectly into this strategy, providing a delicious and convenient meal option for service members and their families.
