A rapidly growing pizza franchise has scored a big-time endorser from the sports world. LeBron James is joining forces with Blaze Fast-Fire’d Pizza.
The endorsement deal is the next step for James after he was one of the concept’s original investors and has an interest in multiple franchise locations. He will play a vital role in the company’s advertising and various marketing strategies.
Blaze is a custom pizza fast-casual concept that will cook a customer’s creation in 180 seconds. After three years of operation, they have 88 locations spread across the U.S.
James is one of the most marketable stars in or out of the sports world and is declining his endorsement option with McDonald's to take the high-profile role with Blaze. The 11-time All-Star was a two-time NBA champion with the Miami Heat before returning home this past season with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
James was a prodigy since his prep days in Akron. The Cavaliers selected him out high school with the first pick in the 2003 NBA Draft and he immediately started out on a course to dominate the league.
From Nike to Coca-Cola, James has been an endorsement king for some of the biggest brands in the world. Forbes has routinely ranked him as one of their most influential athletes.
