Cleveland isn't really Ohio, it's like a whole other country.
Iowa got loose meat sammiches, and I almost expected it for OH considering the little moneymaker Maid-rite in Greenville. Then I looked up maidrite and got the corporation and they're all over Iowa, and the only one mentioned for OH is a place in a gas station that I don't think even sells them anymore. There just isn't a place like the original.
Research doesn't help too much with the franchises vs the original in Greenville. Here's a little site that explains the original maid-rite though.

I suspect the maid-rite franchises throughout the Midwest are a lot like North Carolina claiming 'First in Flight.' You were a location, all right, Kittyhawk, but you ain't the Wright Brothers themselves.
