Introduction
Overview
Domino’s is the second largest pizza restaurant chain in the world, with more than 14,400
locations in over 85 markets. Founded in 1960, Domino’s roots are in convenient pizza
delivery, while a significant amount of our sales also come from carryout customers.
Although Domino’s are a highly-recognized global brand, they focus on serving the local
neighbourhoods in which they live and do business through their large network of franchise
owners and Company-owned stores. On average, Domino’s sell more than 1.5 million pizzas
each day throughout our global system.
Domino’s business model is straightforward: They handcraft and serve quality food at a
competitive price, with easy ordering access and efficient service which are aided by our
technology innovations. Domino’s dough is generally made fresh and distributed to stores
around the world by them and their 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 their
international markets, they 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.
Domino’s business model can yield strong returns for their franchise owners and Company-
owned stores. It can also yield significant cash flow to Domino’s, 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 traded company.
History
Domino’s Pizza is the second largest franchised pizza chain in the U.S.A., and the history of
Domino’s Pizza is similar to its rival Pizza hut; two brothers started it with borrowed equity
in the sixties. Tom and James Monaghan bought a small Michigan Pizzeria called
Dominick's, which was jointly run by them until James traded his share for a second hand
car. Tom revitalized the image by changing the name to Domino’s Pizza.
By the late seventies there were over 200 franchise pizza businesses in the States and
Domino’s Pizza was ready to go International. In 1983 Domino’s Pizza opened its doors in
Winnipeg, and in the same year opened its one thousand stores. Later that same year
Domino's corporate history was to begin in Australia with its first franchise in Brisbane, on
the East coast.
The locations for Domino’s Pizza grew quickly from here as they sprung up in all sorts of
diverse places including Bogotá. Despite Domino's Pizza springing up diverse locations, they
were still a very traditional company. Domino's Pizza menu had been kept very simple and
streamlined; they only sold one type of pizza crust which they named the regular pizza.
Domino's Pizza dough was shaped by tossing the dough and pulling it into shape. The pizza
menu included just two sizes of dough, it was not until much later that competition forced
them to add a medium and extra-large sized pizza. There were no such things as side orders
you could have Pizza, pizza or Pizza and you could only drink a Coke with it.
In 1989 the history of Domino's Pizza was to change when the Deep Pan pizza was
introduced, for the first time in twenty five years the company was being forced to react to
market demand. This move consolidated the financial base and ensured the growth of
Domino's Pizza , as the same year they opened their five thousand store.
The wind of change had started and by 1992 they were to introduce the first non-pizza item to
their menu, this was obviously a reluctant move as it was bread sticks. Domino Pizza dough
was already on hand and the making of bread sticks is not so different.
For many years the company had advertised that if the delivery of their pizzas took longer
than thirty minutes then the pizza would be delivered free. This was parodied by the Teenage
Mutant Ninja Turtles movie which specified the pizza has 30 seconds to complete the
delivery. The turtle’s pizza was late and they received a refund of $3 for being two minutes
late. However the benefits to Domino Pizza were enormous as millions of kids were to hear
the name of Domino Pizza endorsed on celluloid. In 1993 Domino Pizza discontinued this
policy and stated that if a customer was unhappy they could have a new pizza or a refund.
By 1994 Domino’s Pizza marketing policy widened as chicken wings were introduced to the
5. 5 | P a g e
ST. XAVIER’SBANGALORE
menu. At the same time the company hit the African continent as they opened a store in
Egypt. By 1996 Domino’s Pizza website was launched and the company declared global sales
of nearly $3 billion.
Despite their reluctance to add a wider range menu they have as a company given the pizza
industry many innovations that have now become standard.
The belt driven pizza oven was the invention of Domino Pizza and they began using
corrugated cardboard delivery boxes which were very effective at holding the heat within the
pizza during the delivery time. Ever mindful of the fact that a cold pizza must be about the
worst dining experience on earth Domino’s pizza introduced the "Heat Wave," a portable
electrical bag system that keeps the pizza hot during delivery.
By 1997 they had also had an internal modern facilities as their stores were all brightened up
and the company introduced a new logo. Domino Pizza continued to grow exponentially and
in 1997 they opened seven stores in one day but in 5 different continents.

That's why, all Domino’s Pizza efforts, whether it is a new innovative and delicious product,
offering consumers value for money deals, great service, countrywide presence or the

To study factors influencing consumer behaviour.
To know source of consumer preferences.
To examine purchasing behaviour of the consumer.
To know the consumer satisfaction in pricing factors.

To give suggestions to the company to improve their service.
Scope of the study
The area of study is limited to the segment selected within Goa, Bangalore and others states.
It is difficult to collect information within the limited period of time. This has caused my
study only to the existing consumers of Domino’s Pizza within the states. In this project I
have made an attempt to study consumer’s preference relating to Domino’s Pizza. The
required data was collected from 100 respondents by means of well-structured questionnaires.
ResearchMethodology
This study is based on both Primary and secondary data. The primary instrument for data
collection used in this study was a questionnaire. Primary data was collected from 100
respondents from different states. The sampling method used in this study was random
sampling. The google forms were created for the survey. The survey forms were forwarded
through medium of channels like Mails, WhatsApp, and Facebook etc.
Secondary data have been collected through magazines and official websites of Domino’s
Pizza. Data thus collected was processed, analysed and interpreted to draw the valid
illustrations.
Limitations of the study
The extent of the survey was conducted in limited states only. So the suggestions or
information given in this report may not hold true for other location in India.
