Ilitch Companies Colleagues Volunteer for Life Remodeled
October 14, 2025
In a display of community engagement and teamwork, Ilitch Companies colleagues joined forces with local nonprofit, Life Remodeled, on their Six Day Project this past week to help revitalize several blocks in Detroit.
As part of the initiative, colleagues from five business units spent the day working on various projects, including picking up blight, mowing grass, raking leaves, and generally beautifying vacant lots across four blocks in northern Detroit.
"This is one of the most wonderful volunteer projects every single year because it is so hands-on,” said Joshua Sanborn, Director of the Ilitch Companies Foundation. “You get out into the neighborhoods. If you want to help, you can directly help."
For nearly a decade, Ilitch Companies has proudly partnered with Life Remodeled to support neighborhood revitalization. What began as a single volunteer initiative has grown into a deep, ongoing collaboration impacting neighborhoods across the city.
“I think the Ilitch Companies Foundation has been volunteering now for nine years, which is an incredible feat in and of itself. And they have partnered with us in so many other ways,” said Diallo Smith, President & Chief Executive Officer of Life Remodeled. “So when you think about all the ways in which our corporate community can really lend a helping hand to help revitalize Detroit neighborhoods, I believe that the Ilitch Companies Foundation stands on top of that tier.”
In the coming months, Ilitch Companies colleagues will continue their community engagement by partnering with additional nonprofit organizations that serve Detroit. Through these efforts, Ilitch Companies aim to make a lasting impact across the city by addressing critical needs and strengthening their relationship with the Detroit community.

Little Caesars Expands Its Footprint with Michigan State University Partnership
September 29, 2025
Little Caesars, the third-largest pizza chain in the world, has announced its new partnership with Michigan State University this fall. The brand officially debuted at Spartan Stadium for the Spartans’ season-opening football game on Friday, August 29, and will operate restaurants across all three of the university’s major sports venues, including Munn Ice Arena and Breslin Center. Seasoned Little Caesars franchisee, Derek Turowski will operate all of the restaurants across the venues.
Turowski has been involved in the franchise industry from a young age, when his father operated restaurants. A graduate of Michigan State University’s School of Hospitality Business, Turowski began his career working alongside his father and eventually became a General Manager at several of his father’s restaurants. Through dedication and hard work, since becoming a Little Caesars franchisee, Turowski has expanded to more than 16 restaurants across Michigan. He continues to grow in the state, with a new location under development in Holt, Michigan. This expansion highlights both Turowski’s commitment as a franchisee and the strength of the Little Caesars brand in Michigan’s competitive restaurant landscape.
“As an alumnus of MSU, I am proud to expand Little Caesars into the campus and bring quality pizza to all green-and-white fans,” said Turowski. “The brand has given me an incredible opportunity to grow as an entrepreneur and continue to build my portfolio in Michigan. Operating these new restaurants is another step in that journey, and I look forward to serving even more communities across the state.”
“Partnering with Michigan State University is a natural fit for Little Caesars,” said Bryan Ketelhut, Vice President of Franchising and Business Development. “As a Michigan-based brand, we’re excited to connect with the Spartan community and bring our pizza to fans across all three MSU stadiums. This partnership reflects our commitment to growing in key markets while delivering the quality, value, and convenience fans know and love.”
Little Caesars is actively seeking qualified multi-unit franchise operators to help propel development efforts in target markets nationwide, including in and around non-traditional venues like universities, water parks, airports, and stadiums. Multi-unit franchising opportunities are available in regions across the U.S., including the Northeast, Pacific Northwest, Kansas City, New Orleans, and North and South Carolina. The established brand offers franchisees a convenience-driven business model and an efficient concept.
With more than 65 years of family-owned history, Little Caesars emphasizes quality, value, and convenience. Franchisees benefit from an integrated supply chain, innovative menu offerings, and flexible restaurant formats, including the new Elev8 design and modular POD units, allowing the brand to adapt to a variety of real estate options. Little Caesars also maintains a strong community focus through its Love Kitchen® program, which has served more than 4 million meals nationwide, and partnerships with local schools, sports teams, and nonprofits.

Detroit Red Wings Unveil Centennial Season Uniform
September 15, 2025
The Detroit Red Wings today unveiled their official Centennial uniform, commemorating 100 years of Hockeytown. Established in 1926 as one of the National Hockey League’s (NHL) Original Six franchises, the team was originally known as the Detroit Cougars, and later the Detroit Falcons, before adopting the Red Wings name in 1932. The franchise's legacy is deeply intertwined with the city it calls home, proudly celebrated by generations of devoted fans.
Designed by the Red Wings and produced by Fanatics, the Centennial uniform honors the iconic Winged Wheel sweater while capturing the pride, tradition and enduring spirit that have defined the franchise for nearly a century.
“Red Wings fans have long embraced the Winged Wheel, and we wanted our Centennial uniform to commemorate its legacy,” said Ryan Gustafson, President and CEO, Ilitch Sports + Entertainment. “This design honors the traditions that make Red Wings hockey truly distinctive, while incorporating meaningful details to celebrate this remarkable milestone in a way that stays authentic to Detroit. It recognizes the outstanding players, the defining moments and above all, the devoted fans who have shaped us into who we are today. We believe this uniform will serve as a powerful reminder of our history, while inspiring anticipation for the memorable moments yet to come.”
Design Details
Each element of the Centennial uniform was carefully crafted, with meaningful design elements reflecting the team’s century-long story. A commemorative Centennial patch will be worn on all regular season home and away jerseys.
• DETROIT COUGARS TRIBUTE: The original 1926–27 Detroit Cougars jersey prominently featured an Olde English “D.” This classic logo has been thoughtfully redrawn and reintroduced as a secondary mark for Red Wings Centennial, appearing on the front leg of the solid-red pants, the jock tag at the bottom front of the jersey and the hem loop on the back. The jersey’s number font is inspired by the Cougars’ “Barber Pole” uniforms, worn in 1927-28.
• DETROIT FALCONS TRIBUTE: The striping along the hem, sleeves and socks draws from Detroit Falcons uniforms from 1930-1932. Both the font and striping use a vintage off-white tone to reflect the heritage aesthetic.
• LEATHER-LIKE FEATURES: Patches on the jersey are designed to match the leather-brown hue of the Centennial uniform gloves, a nod to the traditional leather used in gloves and goalie pads. Featured patches include:
o A diamond-shaped faux leather captain patch, honoring those worn in the 1950s
o A faux leather jock tag inscribed with “Established 1926 DETROIT MI”
o A faux leather hem loop on the back of the jersey
• STITCHING: The first chain-stitched Winged Wheel, introduced in 1932 and used through 1948, is acknowledged in the Centennial jersey’s craftsmanship.
• LACE-UP COLLAR: Returning as a fan-favorite homage to early hockey sweaters, the lace-up collar is featured on the Centennial design.
• ADDITIONAL ACCENTS: The Red Wings Centennial logo patch is on the left shoulder, and a reimagined “Hockeytown” mark is inside the collar. The inside hem of the jersey displays Detroit’s 11 Stanley Cup-winning years, flanked by silhouettes of the original trophy on the left and the modern Stanley Cup on the right. The Priority sponsor patch will be seamlessly integrated into the design and be placed on the right shoulder of the jersey.
• HELMET: For the first time in franchise history, the Red Wings will wear a matte red helmet featuring a vintage Meijer logo (1957–1966) decal.
When Uniform Will Be Worn
The Centennial jersey will be worn for more than a dozen home games during the 2025-26 season, with the Centennial uniform debuting on the ice during the team’s home opener on Oct. 9, when the Red Wings host another Original Six franchise, the Montreal Canadiens.
