History[edit]
1960s–2010s[edit]
In 1960,[8] Tom Monaghan and his brother, James, took
over the operation of DomiNick's, an existing location of
a small pizza restaurant chain that had been owned by
Dominick DeVarti, at 507 Cross Street (now 301 West
Cross Street)[9] in Ypsilanti, Michigan,[10] near Eastern
Michigan University.[11] The deal was secured by a $500
down payment, and the brothers borrowed $900 to pay
for the store.[12] The brothers planned to split the work
hours evenly, but James did not want to quit his job as a
full-time postman to keep up with the demands of the
new business. Within eight months, James traded his
half of the business to Tom for the Volkswagen
Beetle they used for pizza deliveries.[12]
By 1965, Tom Monaghan had purchased two additional
pizzerias; he now had a total of three locations in the
same county. Monaghan wanted the stores to share the
same branding, but the original owner forbade him from
using the DomiNick's name. One day, an employee, Jim
Kennedy, returned from a pizza delivery and suggested
the name "Domino's".[9] Monaghan immediately loved
the idea and officially renamed the business Domino's
Pizza, Inc. in 1965.[12]
The company logo originally had three dots,
representing the three stores in 1965.[12] Monaghan
planned to add a new dot with the addition of every new
store, but this idea quickly faded, as Domino's
experienced rapid growth.[12] Domino's Pizza opened its
first franchise location in 1967[13] and by 1978, the
company had expanded to 200 stores.[14] In 1975,
Domino's faced a lawsuit by Amstar Corporation, the
maker of Domino Sugar, alleging trademark
infringement and unfair competition. On May 2, 1980,
the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans found
in favor of Domino's Pizza.[15]
In 1998, after 38 years of ownership, Domino's founder
Tom Monaghan announced his retirement, 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.[16] A year later, the company
named Dave Brandon as its CEO.[17]

Corporate governance[edit]
Domino's management is led by CEO Richard Allison.
Previous chief executive Dave Brandon remains
Chairman.[57] Among 11 executive vice presidents are
Jeffrey Lawrence, CFO; Tom Curtis, Team USA; Scott
Hinshaw, Franchise Operations and Development; and
Kevin Morris, General Counsel.[58] Domino's operations
are overseen by a board of directors led by Brandon.
Other members of the board are Allison, Andy Ballard,
Andrew Balson, Diana Cantor, Richard Federico, James
Goldman, Corie Sue Barry and Patricia Lopez.[59]
On July 1, 2018, Allison, the previous president of
international business for Domino's, replaced Doyle as
CEO.
