Marco’s Pizza kicked off its annual convention last week with a pizza contest to find its next LTO menu item, and named the winner local high school student, Zach Schreeder, for his Chorizo Chicken Pizza. Zach is an employee from Marco’s Pizza in Chattanooga.

 

His pizza was selected from a total of 22 entries, out of which 10 finalists were invited to bake their creations on the convention room floor in San Antonio last week to share with attendees and a panel of judges.

 

Scored based on taste, visual appeal and store viability, the Chorizo Chicken Pizza has been presented to Marco’s Pizza corporate to be considered as an LTO menu item system-wide.

Zach looks forward to putting his cash prize of $1,000 toward his college tuition.
