TOLEDO, Ohio, Jan. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Marco's Pizza, one of the nation's fastest-growing pizza brands, helps guests keep New Year's resolutions by making it easier to eat healthier and save money without feeling limited.

Marco's Pizza, one of the nation's fastest-growing pizza brands, helps guests keep New Year’s resolutions by making it easier to eat healthier and save money without feeling limited.

According to a recent YouGov poll1, among the top New Year's resolutions for 2026 include eating healthier (22%) and saving more money (21%). Yet many consumers struggle to maintain goals that feel unrealistic or limiting. Marco's Pizza supports this more flexible mindset by delivering craveable pizza made with premium ingredients and menu options that allow guests to enjoy the foods they love, without feeling like they're compromising.

"At Marco's, we know resolutions stick when choices feel doable," said Marta DeAguiar, Vice President, Brand and Field Marketing. "Whether guests are looking to make lighter choices, stretch their food budget, or do both at once, Marco's makes it easier to enjoy pizza in ways that feel realistic, enjoyable and sustainable."

Lighter Options That Deliver Flavor:
For guests focused on eating healthier in the New Year, Marco's offers adaptable menu options that don't sacrifice flavor, including its nationwide cauliflower crust2. Made with real cauliflower, the light and crispy crust contains no artificial colors, flavors or preservatives and contains just 160 calories per slice, with fewer carbohydrates and less sodium than a traditional crust. Guests can top this gluten-friendly crust² with Marco's fresh three cheese blend and the Italian founder's original sauce.

Everyday Pricing Designed to Support Real-World Budgets:
Marco's introduces two new everyday value options designed to give guests dependable choices they can consistently count on:

  • Medium 1-Topping Pizzas for $8.99 each³
  • Large Pepperoni Magnifico® Pizzas for $12.99 each4

Together, these offerings reinforce Marco's belief that value isn't about cutting corners—it's about giving guests smart, versatile choices that support their goals. Whether managing a household budget or making more mindful food choices, Marco's helps make pizza a realistic part of everyday life in the New Year and beyond.
