"When you see that happening at a faster rate, it's certainly something you pay attention to."The brand connected with fans on social media and tested various items before rolling out some of their specialty pizzas. Toppers utilized all their social channels to solicit feedback from the public on what they want to see on their pizzas in order to make sure that their new offerings would reflect the tastes of their customer base.<a href="https://www.franchisetimes.com/franchise_news/homebound-customers-trend-toward-premium-items/article_f878decc-af46-11eb-9b0a-ef620fe1be7e.html?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=toppers-pizza-featured-in-franchise-times-for-driving-homebound-customers-to-premium-menu-items-2715759" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Read the entire article on Franchise Times.</a>
