New Little Caesars In Muncie Helps Families In Need

Ball State Daily News:

Before Dave Koone had thought of franchising Little Caesars, he started serving in his church as a mentor and realized he wanted to become a leader.

“I was in leadership development, and I felt I was having an impact on people’s lives,” Koone said.

In 2007 Koone became the owner of a franchise group for the pizza restaurant. On Tuesday, he opened a store in Muncie.
Koone said the store is bringing 50 new jobs to the city and opportunities for college students.

Lauren Barron, assistant manager of the store, said about 30 people in the crew were college students from Ivy Tech College and Ball State University. A Ball State student herself, Barron said the store fits the needs of Muncie.

The store has become a good place for value, Koone said.

“The place is going extremely well,” he said. “It’s one of the best places in the country, with great value. I think it’s cool that we were able to bring this to Muncie.”

Koone said the goal of the store is to help customers.
