Domino’s is set to initiate a trial of its collaboration with Uber Eats starting next year, as indicated in its most recent trading update.
As per Domino’s Pizza Group, the master franchisee for Domino’s in the UK, this decision follows the brand’s announcement of a worldwide partnership with Uber Eats.
Domino’s has revealed the opening of 45 restaurants in 2023, collaborating with 20 distinct franchise partners. This marks a change from the same period last year when 21 restaurants were opened, involving 13 different franchise partners.
Domino’s anticipates opening a minimum of 60 new restaurants by the year’s end, a notable increase from the 35 opened during the corresponding period last year. Additionally, the pizza brand has disclosed plans for the development of 45 new restaurants in 2024.
“We’ve continued to make great strategic progress to drive sustainable growth. As we look into next year, we see inflation stabilising and our focus will be on continued customer and order growth, as well as franchisee profitability. We remain confident that our resilient, asset-light business model will deliver further financial and strategic progress, and increased returns for our shareholders,” Andrew Rennie, CEO of DPG said.
Domino’s saw like-for-like sales increase by 3.7% in Q3 2023.
