The brand has stood out from the standard pizza chains, thanks to its bold flavors and customization options. Now, as the brand continues to develop new locations across the country, Toppers is looking at St. Louis as its next hub for development.</span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style=""><br /></span></div><div id="pastingspan1"><span style="">The brand has a major presence across the Midwest with successful units in Kansas City, Milwaukee, Indianapolis and Chicago.
