What Oven Does Marco's Pizza Use to Bake Pizzas?

Marco's Pizza was founded by Pasquale "Pat" Giammarco in Oregon, Ohio, in 1978. Today, the chain has more than 1,100 stores across 33 states. Part of the chain's success comes from dough prepared in-store, never frozen, and baked in Middleby Marshall PS640 impingement conveyor ovens.

Conveyor ovens are available in electric and natural gas models and deliver rapid, high-volume output without sacrificing quality. The automated baking process eliminates the need for constant monitoring, ensuring consistent results while reducing labor requirements.

How Conveyor Ovens Work

Conveyor ovens operate by continuously moving product through a heated chamber on a motorized wire belt. Middleby Marshall conveyor ovens use air impingement technology to direct high-velocity heated air through perforated air fingers positioned above and below the conveyor belt. When cold or room temperature food enters the conveyor oven, a cool boundary surrounds it. Impingement ovens use the hot air to break this boundary, transferring the oven's intense heat directly to the dough. This process results in decreased baking time and even browning.

Features of Middleby Marshall PS640 conveyor ovens:

  • Variable air flow technology optimizes airflow
  • Touchscreen controls enable temperature and conveyor speed programming
  • Energy management system reduces energy consumption

These technologies support consistent quality, improve operational efficiency, and help Marco's Pizza maintain high production volumes while reducing energy costs.

The Benefits of Conveyor Ovens

Conveyor ovens offer exceptional consistency, speed, and labor savings for high- volume foodservice operations. With conveyor ovens, operators can:

  • Automate the baking process, reducing the need for staff monitoring
  • Support fast, continuous pizza production
  • Minimize labor requirements
  • Ensure product consistency with programmable settings across multiple locations
  • Improve kitchen workflow by streamlining production

How Conveyor Ovens Can Improve Your Commercial Kitchen

Conveyor ovens help foodservice operations optimize speed and output by reducing baking times. Forced-air impingement technology surrounds food with high-velocity heated air, ensuring baked goods receive uniform heat and preventing product loss from burned or undercooked items. Staff can place menu items on the belt and continue with prep while the product cooks, reducing customer wait time.
