Domino's is the largest pizza restaurant chain in the world based on global retail sales, with more than 17,200 stores in over 90 markets. Founded in 1960, our roots are in convenient pizza delivery, while a significant amount of our sales also come from carryout customers. Although we are a highly-recognized global brand, we focus on serving the local neighborhoods in which we live and do business through our large network of franchise owners and Company-owned stores. On average, we sell more than 3 million pizzas each day throughout our global system.
Our business model is straightforward: we handcraft and serve quality food at a competitive price, with easy ordering access and efficient service which are aided by our technology innovations. Our dough is generally made fresh and distributed to stores around the world by us and our franchisees.
Domino's generates revenues and earnings by charging royalties to its franchisees. Royalties are ongoing percent-of-sales fees for use of the Domino's brand marks. The Company also generates revenues and earnings by selling food, equipment and supplies to franchisees primarily in the U.S. and Canada, and by operating a number of our own stores. Franchisees profit by selling pizza and other complementary items to their local customers. In our international markets, we generally grant geographical rights to the Domino's Pizza® brand to master franchisees. These master franchisees also profit by running pizza stores, and often by sub-franchising and selling ingredients and equipment to those sub-franchisees. Everyone in the system can benefit, including the end consumer, who can feed their family Domino's menu items conveniently and economically.
Our business model can yield strong returns for our franchise owners and Company-owned stores. It can also yield significant cash flow to us, through a consistent franchise royalty payment and supply chain revenue stream and with moderate capital expenditures. We have historically returned cash to shareholders through dividend payments and share buybacks since becoming a publicly...
Read moreI visited the store today, the ordering line was bit long so I was waiting at the counter and watching the process of making and believe me it was horrible. They were not wearing the cap and gloves. The girls who was making the pizza dough was scratching her scalp and making the pizza also she came to the counter ,put her hand on the computer, keyboard and then she went again there and touched the dough. When I asked them about why they are not wearing gloves and caps ,they said it's not allowed. So I tried to took a picture, suddenly he got upset and started yelling at me by saying taking pictures are not allowed to which I asked where is it written? Than he called his manager and the manager said "after covid we were ordered not to wear caps and gloves". I am so disappointed with such a big company. So now that we all know from where the special taste of so called...
Read moreI had ordered a classic pizza. Classic pizza is very good. They had given it to me. They had put cheese in it very nicely. But it took them more than 30 minutes at least to prepare my order and when I reached in the afternoon, even that was not working properly. And when I used their washroom, that washroom was very dirty. It was so dirty that I felt I could not even use it. But the cleaning was going on well for the table outside and I got pizza. It was very tasty and very hot, so if you want, you can try the food. It is located right next to...
