Little Caesars, the popular fast-casual pizza chain known for its square pizzas, has signed new licensing agreements to expand onto college campuses, as reported by QSR Magazine. Seasoned franchisees Sheena and Lenny Plocharczyk will oversee the location opening on the Eastern Michigan University campus inside Crossroads Marketplace this fall.

“Given our experience working at the corporate level and recognizing there is strong demand for iconic brands like Little Caesars to be accessible across college campuses, we knew this was a great investment opportunity for us to jump on board with,” Sheena Plocharczyk told QSR Magazine. “The transition to becoming franchisees has been smooth and the support we have received from the team has helped set us up for success on campus. As an alumna of Eastern Michigan University, I am really excited about this new business endeavor.”

According to the EMU website, the campus currently has a Little Caesars food truck at Pray Harrold. A brick-and-mortar Little Caesars also recently opened in the Crossroads near the Village and Lakeview, operating Sunday through Thursday from 5 pm to 9 pm.
