Little Caesars is moving deeper into the New York metro market.

Little Caesars, the Detroit-based pizza franchise chain<\/a> owned by Ilitch Holdings, operates more than 4,000<\/strong> locations in the United States and holds the position of third-largest pizza chain by unit count behind Domino’s<\/a> and Pizza Hut<\/a>. The brand’s franchise model<\/a> centers on a low-cost, carryout-first format, with a total initial investment ranging from $379,000<\/strong> to $1.8 million<\/strong> depending on location type, per the brand’s current Franchise Disclosure Document<\/a>. New Jersey, with its dense population corridors and proximity to New York City, represents one of the more competitive and sought-after markets in the Northeast for quick-service pizza expansion.<\/p>\n\n\n
