## Story

Toppers Pizza is in the midst of an expansion across North Carolina, and is specifically looking at Fayetteville as part of that development. The Fayetteville Observer spoke with director of franchise development Mark Cairns about the Toppers brand and their plans for the area.

According to the piece, the Fayetteville market is closely aligned with the markets Toppers has already seen success in. The article also details the Toppers brand and menu, and discusses the fun and different style that makes Toppers Pizza unique.

Said Cairns, "We have the basics in the pizza business, but we do it in a new, fresh way for our customers. People make this connection to the brand that we are a local pizza place. And that’s a big thing — and hard — to earn, but we do.”
