Little Caesars has promoted Bryan Ketel to VP of franchising and business development. Ketelhut has been with the pizza brand since 2007, beginning his journey as a franchisee in Dallas, Texas, and later Rhode Island.

After joining the corporate team in 2011, he spent over two years as a zone manager in Franchise Services, supporting franchisees in the southwestern U.S. In 2013, he transitioned to the U.S. Development team, helping to create and implement new limited-menu concepts for non-traditional venues. These now include landmark locations such as the Kennedy Space Center, Pearl Harbor, Washington State University and multiple military bases, higher education institutions, travel plazas and entertainment venues.

From 2018 to 2021, Ketelhut led the franchising team with a focus on traditional store development, asset management and strategic concepts. Most recently, he served as national director of non-traditional, asset management and development services. His experience as a former franchisee gives him a unique perspective on supporting operators and optimizing growth strategies.

Little Caesars has restaurants in each of the 50 U.S. states and 30 countries and territories.
