Marco's Pizza made its first appearance at the 31st annual International Pizza Expo in Las Vegas from March 23-26 to compete at the International Pizza Challenge. The company took home the silver prize in the traditional division for its Pepperoni Magnifico, according to an announcement from Marco's.

A panel of judges at the expo assigned scores for each pizza based on taste of crust, sauce, cheese, toppings, overall taste, creativity and visual presentation for bake and appearance.
