<b><u>Domino's Pizza, Inc.</b></u> is an international pizza delivery corporation headquartered in Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States.[1]Founded in 1960,
Domino's is the second-largest pizza chain in the United States[2] and has nearly 9,000 corporate and franchised stores[3]in 60 international markets[4] and all 50
U.S. states. Domino's Pizza was sold to Bain Capital in 1998 and went public in 2004. The menu features pizza, pasta, oven-baked sandwiches, wings, boneless
chicken, salads, breadsticks, cheesesticks, and a variety of dessert items. <br><br>

History
<b><u>Early years</b></u><br><br>
In 1960, Tom Monaghan and his brother, James, purchased DomiNick's a small pizza store in Ypsilanti, Michigan. The deal was secured by a US$75 down
payment and the brothers borrowed $500 to pay for the store. Eight months later, James traded his half of the business to Tom for a used Volkswagen Beetle. As
sole owner of the company, Tom Monaghan renamed the business Domino's Pizza, Inc. in 1965. In 1967, the first Domino's Pizza franchise store opened in
Ypsilanti. The company logo was originally planned to add a new dot with the addition of every new store, but this idea quickly faded as Domino's experienced
rapid growth. By 1978, the franchise opened its 200th store. <br><br>

In 1975, Domino's faced a lawsuit by Amstar Corporation, maker of Domino Sugar, alleging trademark infringement and unfair competition. On May 2, 1980, a
federal appeals court found in favor of Domino's Pizza. The End shoot<br><br>

<b><u>International expansion</b></u><br>
On May 12, 1983, Domino's opened its first international store, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.[10] That same year, Domino's opened its 1,000th store overall, and
by 1995 Domino's had 1,000 international locations. In 1997, Domino's opened its 1,500th international location, opening seven stores in one day across five
continents.

<br><br>

<b><u>Sale of company</b></u><br>
In 1998, after 38 years of ownership, Domino's Pizza founder Tom Monaghan announced his retirement and sold 93 percent of the company to Bain Capital, Inc.
for about $1 billion and ceased being involved in day-to-day operations of the company. A year later, the company named David A. Brandon Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer.

Current era

In 2004, after 44 years as a privately held company, an employee of Domino's Pizza rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchangeand the company
began trading common stock on the NYSE under the ticker symbol "DPZ".[13]

Industry trade publication Pizza Today magazine named Domino's Pizza "Chain of the Year" in 2003[14] and did so again in 2010.[15] In a simultaneous celebration
in 2006, Domino's opened its 5,000th U.S. store in Huntley, Illinois, and its 3,000th international store in Panama City, making 8,000 total stores for the
system.[16] Also that year, the Domino's Pizza store in Tallaght, Dublin, Ireland, became the first in Domino's history to hit a turnover of $3 million (2.35 million) per
year.[17] As of September 2006, it has 8,238 stores which totaled US$1.4 billion in gross income.[18]

In 2007, Domino's introduced its Veterans and Delivering the Dream franchising programs and also rolled out its online and mobile ordering sites.[8] In 2009,
Domino's introduced the Pizza Tracker, an online application that allows customers to view the status of their order in a simulated "real time" progress bar. In
addition, the first Domino's with a dining room opened in Stephenville, Texas, giving the customers the option to either eat in or take their pizza home. Since 2005,
the voice of Domino's Pizza's national phone ordering service 1-800-DOMINOS has been Kevin Railsback.[19]

In a 2009 survey of consumer taste preferences among national chains by Brand Keys, Domino's was last tied with Chuck E. Cheese's. In December that year,
Domino's announced plans to entirely reinvent its pizza. It began a self-flogging ad campaign in which consumers were filmed criticizing the pizza's quality and
chefs were shown developing the new product.[20][21] The new pizza was introduced that same month, and the following year, Domino's 50th anniversary, the
company acquired J. Patrick Doyle as its new CEO experienced a historic 14.3% quarterly gain. While admitted not to endure, the success was described by
Doyle as one of the largest quarterly same-store sales jumps ever recorded by a major fast-food chain.[22][23]

The current Domino's menu features a variety of Italian-American entrees and sides. Pizza is the primary focus, with traditional, specialty and custom pizzas
available in a variety of crust styles and toppings. Additional entrees include pasta bread bowls and oven-baked sandwiches. The menu offers chicken side dishes,
breadsticks and salads, as well as beverages and desserts. <br><br>

From its founding until the early 1990s, the menu at Domino's Pizza was kept simple relative to other fast food restaurants, to ensure efficiency of
delivery.[25] Historically, Domino's menu consisted solely of one pizza in two sizes (12-inch and 16-inch), 11 toppings, and Coke as the only soft drink option.
<br><br>

The first menu expansion occurred in 1989, with the debut of Domino's deep dish, or pan pizza. Its introduction followed market research showing that 40% of
American pizza customers preferred thick crusts. The new product launch cost approximately $25 million, of which $15 million was spent on new sheet metal pans
with perforated bottoms. Domino's started testing extra-large size pizzas in early 1993, starting with the 30-slice, yard-long "The Dominator".<br><br>

Domino's tapped into a market trend toward bite-size foods with spicy Buffalo Chicken Kickers, as an alternative to Buffalo Wings, in August 2002. The breaded,
baked, white-meat fillets, similar to chicken tenders, are packaged in a custom-designed box with two types of sauce to "heat up" and "cool down" the chicken.
<br><br>

In August 2003, Domino's announced its first new pizza since January 2000, the Philly Cheese Steak Pizza. The product launch also marked the beginning of a
partnership with the National Cattlemen's Beef Association, whose beef Check-Off logo appeared in related advertising. Domino's continued its move toward
specialty pizzas in 2006, with the introduction of its "Brooklyn Style Pizza", featuring a thinner crust, cornmeal baked in to add crispness, and larger slices that
could be folded in the style of traditional New York-style pizza. <br><br>

In 2008, Domino's once again branched out into non-pizza fare, offering oven-baked sandwiches in four styles, intended to compete with Subway's
toasted submarine sandwiches. Early marketing for the sandwiches made varied references to its competition, such as offering free sandwiches to customers
named "Jared," a reference to Subway's spokesman of the same name. <br><br>

The company introduced its American Legends line of specialty pizzas in 2009, featuring 40% more cheese than the company's regular pizzas, along with a
greater variety of toppings. That same year, Domino's began selling its BreadBowl Pasta entree, a lightly seasoned bread bowl baked with pasta inside,[35] and
Lava Crunch Cake dessert, composed of a crunchy chocolate shell filled with warm fudge. Domino's promoted the item by flying in 1,000 cakes to deliver at
Hoffstadt Bluffs Visitor Center near Mount St Helens. <br><br>

In 2010, the company changed its pizza recipe "from the crust up", making significant changes in the dough, sauce and cheese used in their pizzas. Their
advertising campaign admitted to earlier problems with the public perception of Domino's product due to issues of taste. <br><br>
[edit]Corporate

governance

Domino's management is led by J. Patrick Doyle, CEO from March 2010, formerly president of Domino's USA. Previous chief executive David Brandon, made
athletic director of theUniversity of Michigan in January 2010, remains chairman.[40] Among 11 executive vice presidents are Michael Lawton, CFO; Asi Sheikh,
Team USA; Scott Hinshaw, Franchise Operations and Development; and Kenneth Rollin, General Counsel.[41] Domino's operations are overseen by a board of
directors led by Brandon. Other members of the board are Andrew Balson, Diana Cantor, Mark Nunnelly, Robert Rosenberg and Bud Hamilton.[42]
[edit]Charitable

activities

In 2001, Domino's launched a two-year national partnership with the Make-A-Wish Foundation of America. That same year, the company stores in New York
City and Washington D.C.provided more than 12,000 pizzas to relief workers following the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and The Pentagon.
Through a matching funds program, the corporation donated $350,000 to the American Red Cross' disaster relief effort.[7] In 2004, Domino's began its current
partnership with St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, participating in the hospital's "Thanks and Giving" campaign since it began in 2004, raising more than $1.3
million in 2006.[43]

[edit]Advertising

and sponsorship

Arie Luyendyk's Lola-Chevrolet which won the 1990 Indianapolis 500 for Doug Shierson Racing.

In the 1980s, Domino's Pizza was well known for its advertisements featuring The Noid. That concept was created by Group 243 Inc. who then hired Will Vinton
Studios to produce the television commercials that they created. The catch phrase associated with the commercials was "Avoid the Noid."

Due to a glitch on the Domino's website, the company gave away nearly 11,000 free medium pizzas in March 2009. The company had planned the campaign for
December 2008 but dropped the idea and never promoted it. The code was never deactivated though and resulted in the free giveaway of the pizzas across the
United States after someone discovered the promotion on the website by typing in the word "bailout" as the promotion code and then shared it with others on the
Internet. Domino's deactivated the code on the morning of Tuesday, March 31, 2009 and promised to reimburse store owners for the pizzas.[44]

Domino's sponsored CART's Doug Shierson Racing, which was driven by Arie Luyendyk, and the team won the 1990 Indianapolis 500. In 2003, Domino's teamed
up with NASCAR for a multi-year partnership to become the "Official Pizza of NASCAR."[45] Domino's also sponsoredMichael Waltrip Racing and driver David
Reutimann during the 2007 season in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
[edit]30-minute

guarantee

Starting in 1973, Domino's Pizza had a guarantee that customers would receive their pizzas within 30 minutes of placing an order, or they would receive the pizzas
free. The guarantee was reduced to $3 off in the mid 1980s. In 1992, the company settled a lawsuit brought by the family of an Indiana woman who had been
killed by a Domino's delivery driver, paying the family $2.8 million. In 1993, Domino's settled another lawsuit, this one brought by a woman who was injured when a
Domino's delivery driver ran a red light and collided with her vehicle. The woman was paid nearly $80 million. The guarantee was dropped that same year because
of the "public perception of reckless driving and irresponsibility", according to Monaghan. [46]

In December 2007, Domino's introduced a new slogan, "You Got 30 Minutes", alluding to the earlier pledge but stopping short of promising delivery in a half
hour.[47]

[edit]International

operations

Domino's Pizza is located in more than 60 countries.[48][49] The rights to own, operate and franchise branches of the chain in Australia, New Zealand, France,
Belgium, the Netherlands and the Principality of Monaco are currently owned by Domino's Pizza Enterprises, having been sold off by the parent company between
1993 and 2007. The master franchises for the UK and Ireland were purchased by Domino's Pizza Group, now publicly traded as Domino's Pizza UK & IRL, in
1993.[50]
