The Brothers Three (stylized as the brothers three) is a pizza restaurant in Marinette, Wisconsin and former pizza chain. It was founded in Cicero, Illinois in 1968 by the brothers Glen, Keith, and Dale Nergaard. In 1972 they opened the Marinette location. Over the next several decades, they expanded the chain to other locations across Wisconsin.[1] Currently only one location remains, in Marinette. There is another The Brothers Three in Oconto, Wisconsin, which was formerly part of the chain, but is now independently run.
The roots of the business were established in Cicero, Illinois by three brothers: Glen, Keith, and Dale Nergaard.[2][3] The Cicero business was in operation from 1968 to 1972.[4] The original Wisconsin location of the restaurant, in Marinette, opened on May 19, 1972.[2][3][5][6] The Marinette business was sold to Badger Bay Holding Corporation in November 2004,[2] when its agent, Keith Dau, purchased the company from the brothers.[5][7] In May 2018 it was sold again, to Jim and April Hansen.[4]
