Donn Parker, general manager of the Mount Vernon Dirko’s Pizza is very optimistic about the expansion and thinks that the Howard addition will help them better serve their client base in Apple Valley, Howard, and even Danville.

“We have a great demand for our pizza in the Apple Valley area,” said Parker. “We hope to continue to serve our customers in those locations and having a building in the Howard area will help us serve them better.”

The building itself in Howard offers commodities that are not offered at the Mount Vernon Dirko’s. For example, customers at Howard Dirko’s Pizza will be able to dine-in if they so desire and also have parties on special occasions.

“The building has a sit-down area for customers and a party room that can have a capacity of up to 40 people in it,” said Parker.

Parker is excited for the opportunity to expand into and further help serve the community that he has helped feed good pizza for quite some time.

“This is a great opportunity to expand our business,” said Parker. “We want to be of service to our loyal customers in Howard, Apple Valley and Danville.”
