Pizza Inn is bringing its delicious pizza, served hot and ready to go, to Leachville, Arkansas.

On February 18, the new Pizza Inn Express, located inside The Corner Deli at 906 S. Main St., will begin serving fresh pizza Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.

To celebrate its Leachville debut, PIE is hosting an official grand opening and ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by Leachville Mayor Rodney Robertson and other city council members on February 23 at 10 a.m. The community is invited to join the festivities and try Pizza Inn’s delicious menu with free samples and drinks available during the celebration.

“Pizza Inn was a childhood favorite of my generation and now that I have kids, I want to be able to share it with the next generation,” says franchisee Michael Webster. “Everyone needs a good place to grab lunch or get dinner with family and friends. PIE gives customers a fast, convenient experience when picking up their favorite hot pizza. Bringing PIE to Leachville is my way of supporting the community that my family has been a part of for four generations.”

In honor of the grand opening, Webster will donate $100 to The Leachville Foundation, a local food pantry he helped establish. Webster is also a member of the Leachville City Council and owner of Buffalo Island Self Storage and Webster Properties.
