Toppers Pizza is set to expand its presence in Nebraska. Franchisees Ross Lerner and Lori Irvin recently acquired four existing Toppers Pizza locations — two in Omaha, one in Lincoln and one in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, with plans to grow further in the state, according to a press release.

Lerner and Irvin have inked an agreement to build four additional Toppers Pizza restaurants over the next four and a half years. The brand will have two locations each in Omaha and Lincoln.

"We are thrilled to expand Toppers Pizza into more communities within Nebraska and South Dakota," Lerner said in the press release. "The demand for our high-quality pizza, signature Topperstix and our diverse menu of pies, wings and desserts continues to grow. Our new locations will share these popular offerings with even more fans."

The expansion aligns with Toppers Pizza's strategic growth plans, focusing on increasing its footprint while maintaining the high standards and community engagement that have long defined the brand.

"Our goal is to deliver the exceptional Toppers Pizza experience to a broader audience, and we are committed to serving each community with dedication and enthusiasm. We look forward to becoming a staple in these new markets and engaging with our new guests," Irvin added in the press release.

Toppers Pizza was founded in 1991 and the brand has 70 locations.
