NCR Voyix Corporation (“NCR Voyix”) has been officially selected by Marco’s Technology Services, LLC, an affiliate of Marco’s Franchising, LLC, as its preferred technology partner for the brand’s growing international footprint. This strategic partnership marks a significant milestone for both companies, reflecting a shared commitment to innovation, operational excellence, and international expansion.
Marco’s Pizza, one of the fastest-growing pizza chains in the United States with over 1,200 stores, has been steadily building its presence both domestically and overseas. The company is initiating this new phase of international growth with the launch of its first store in Mexico, slated to open before the end of the year. Following this, Marco’s plans to open at least five additional international locations across Latin America and the Caribbean.
To support this ambitious growth, Marco’s will deploy NCR Voyix’s Aloha Essentials platform, a comprehensive technology suite designed to streamline restaurant operations while enhancing the customer experience. The platform features next-generation point-of-sale (POS) technology, robust hardware and software solutions, professional services, and full-spectrum support, including a wall-to-wall support desk to assist franchisees and corporate operators at every stage of deployment and operation.
Tony Libardi, President and Co-CEO of Marco’s Pizza, commented on the selection of NCR Voyix, saying, “As we expand beyond the U.S., we looked for a technology partner capable of matching our pace and ambition. NCR Voyix brings the innovation, reliability, and global infrastructure we need to scale efficiently while maintaining the high standards our customers expect. This is a key step in our journey to further expand beyond the U.S., and it sets the foundation for sustainable growth in international markets.”
Libardi emphasized that selecting the right technology provider was crucial for ensuring consistent operational excellence across diverse markets. With NCR Voyix’s global footprint and scalable technology solutions, Marco’s can standardize its operations, streamline workflows, and empower franchisees with tools that drive efficiency, reduce errors, and improve the guest experience.
Miguel Solares, Chief Revenue Officer of NCR Voyix, echoed this sentiment, stating, “NCR Voyix is honored to be chosen by Marco’s Pizza at such a pivotal moment in their growth. We’re not just providing technology—we’re helping brands future-proof their operations. Our platform-led SaaS capabilities and global support model provide the agility modern restaurant operators need to succeed. We’re excited to enable Marco’s continued expansion and to support their ambitious international vision.”
The partnership highlights the evolving role of technology in restaurant expansion strategies. By integrating state-of-the-art POS systems, cloud-enabled management tools, and global support capabilities, restaurant brands like Marco’s can maintain operational consistency and ensure superior service quality as they enter new markets. This is particularly critical in international expansion, where local market dynamics, labor challenges, and regulatory requirements can complicate operations.
Marco’s Pizza has been steadily building momentum in 2025. The company plans to open more than 40 new locations this year, combining domestic growth with strategic international development. The brand currently operates 66 international and Caribbean locations, including sites in Mexico, the Bahamas, and Puerto Rico. Looking ahead, Marco’s has a long-term development vision targeting further expansion into Latin America and Canada, aiming to bring its high-quality pizza and unique guest experience to new markets around the globe.
The decision to partner with NCR Voyix underscores the brand’s commitment to leveraging technology as a core enabler of growth. The Aloha Essentials platform is designed to streamline every aspect of restaurant operations, from order management and payment processing to labor scheduling, inventory tracking, and reporting analytics. Franchisees benefit from a unified system that reduces complexity, improves efficiency, and provides actionable insights to enhance profitability and guest satisfaction.
NCR Voyix has a proven track record of supporting major restaurant brands in their growth journeys. Recent wins include partnerships with Buffalo Wild Wings, Raising Cane’s, and Ziggi’s Coffee. These collaborations reflect NCR Voyix’s renewed customer-first philosophy and its expanded service offerings, which combine technology innovation, operational expertise, and global support infrastructure to meet the needs of modern restaurant operators worldwide.
The Marco’s-NCR Voyix partnership represents a broader trend in the restaurant industry, where technology adoption is no longer optional but essential for brands seeking to scale effectively. From loyalty programs and mobile ordering to cloud-based analytics and international support, restaurant operators increasingly rely on advanced technology platforms to maintain consistency, optimize operations, and deliver exceptional guest experiences across multiple locations and regions.
As Marco’s Pizza continues to expand its international footprint, the integration of NCR Voyix’s technology platform ensures that each new location operates with the same efficiency, speed, and quality that customers expect in the U.S. This strategic alignment positions Marco’s to compete effectively in global markets, attract and retain franchisees, and drive sustained brand growth over the coming years.
In conclusion, Marco’s Pizza’s selection of NCR Voyix as its preferred technology partner represents a major milestone in the company’s international expansion strategy. By leveraging the Aloha Essentials platform and NCR Voyix’s global support infrastructure, Marco’s is poised to scale efficiently, maintain operational excellence, and deliver a consistent, high-quality guest experience across all new markets. This partnership not only reinforces NCR Voyix’s status as a trusted leader in restaurant technology but also signals a new chapter in Marco’s ongoing journey toward global growth and innovation.
With continued domestic success, ambitious international plans, and a strong commitment to leveraging technology for operational excellence, Marco’s Pizza is well-positioned to become a leading global pizza brand while empowering franchisees and delighting customers worldwide.
