DALLAS, Feb. 17, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Pie Five Pizza believes a pizza a day keeps the winter blues away and there's no better way to get your daily dose of Vitamin Pie than at the newest Manhattan location. The new addition to the KC Pie, LLC family will open on Friday, February 19th, at 623 North Manhattan Avenue in Aggieville next to Varney's. Pizza lovers are invited to join the Kansas State University cheerleaders and Willie the Wildcat at the grand opening event for a chance to win K-State basketball tickets, Pie Five gift cards and free Pie Five pizzas for a year!
"As a proud Kansan and former Wildcat, I'm roaring with excitement as we open the first Pie Five location in Manhattan," said local franchise partner and proud K-State alum, Lyssa Krumholtz. "At Pie Five, we're all about individuality and guest satisfaction and who doesn't love a place where you can choose from over a million different pie combinations, have your pizza cooked in under 5 minutes and all for one low price?"
Not only does Pie Five bring the freshest and fastest pizza to each new location, the leading fast casual pizzeria is always looking for exciting and engaging ways to give back to communities. During the Manhattan grand opening, Pie Five will host a fundraising competition between local student organizations. In addition to some healthy charitable competition, Pie Five Manhattan will continue to host their Pie-Lan-Thropic events in which 20 percent of proceeds are donated back to local organizations.
Local franchise partners, KC Pie, LLC, recently announced plans to add up to 10 new Pie Five locations in Kansas. Under the new development agreement, franchisee, Dave Goebel, along with sons Kevin and Kerry and daughter Lyssa, plan to strategically fill in trade areas in the Kansas City metro area on both the Kansas and Missouri sides.
