Dominos International pizza franchises win Forbes magazines ‘Best Franchise for the Money’ 2011

Dominos Pizza International has been named as Forbe’s #1 ‘Best Franchise for the Money’ in the magazine’s annual franchise list.

The accolade was awarded to the pizza franchise after 100 of the most recognised franchise operators were researched to determine which brand name franchise offered the best value for money.

“This award is a fantastic achievement for the Dominos brand globally. In every market we operate in we put a strong focus on the franchise side of our business.

“It’s part of our growth strategy and one which we take seriously,” Dominos Pizza Enterprises CEO and MD Don Meij said.

The US award highlighted the pizza franchises strong focus on being a franchise of choice for people looking to take hold of their own future with franchise enquiries in Australia at an all time high following Dominos plan to expand by 35 stores before the end of 2011.

“I think in Australia particularly we are bucking the trend in terms of availability of suitable franchisees and finding quality sites for our stores.

“We have welcomed a lot of new franchisees to our team over the past few months and we are being inundated with new enquires from people who want to invest in a Domino’s franchise,” Meiji said.

He added that the pizza franchise’s Australian expansion plan was exciting for the business as new franchisees join the network of currently 540 stores across the country.
