2.HISTORY
Early years:
In 1960, Tom Monaghan and his brother, James, purchased DomiNick's, a small pizza
store in Ypsilanti, Michigan, near Eastern Michigan University.[7] The deal was secured by
a $500 down payment, and the brothers borrowed $900 to pay for the store.[8] The
brothers planned to split the work hours evenly, but James didn't want to quit his job as a
full-time mailman 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.[8] 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 returned from a pizza delivery and suggested the name Domino's.
Monaghan immediately loved the idea and officially renamed the business Domino's Pizza,
Inc. in 1965.
The company logo originally had three dots, representing the three stores in 1965.[8]
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.[8] Domino's Pizza opened its first
franchise location in 1967[9] and by 1978 the company expanded to 200 stores.[10] 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.
International expansion:

On May 12, 1983, Domino's opened its first international store, in Winnipeg, Manitoba,
Canada.[12] That same year, Domino's opened its 1,000th store overall. In 1985, they
opened their first store in the United Kingdom in Luton.[13] Also in 1985, Domino's
opened their first store in Tokyo, Japan. By 1995, Domino's had expanded to 1,000
international locations. In 1997, Domino's opened its 1,500th international location,
opening seven stores in one day across five continents.[14] From 2007 to 2012, Domino's
gradually established a presence in India with at least 1,000 locations by 2012.[15] By 2014
the company had grown to 6,000 international locations and was planning to expand to
the pizza's birthplace, Italy. CEO Patrick Doyle in May 2014 said the company would
concentrate on its delivery model there.
Sale of company:
In 1998, after 38 years of ownership, Domino's Pizza 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.[17] A year later, the
company named David A. Brandon CEO.

In 2004, after 44 years as a privately held company, Domino's began trading common
stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "DPZ".[19] Industry trade
publication Pizza Today magazine named Domino's Pizza "Chain of the Year" in 2003,
2010, and 2011.[20][21][22] In a simultaneous celebration in January 2006, Domino's
opened its 5,000th U.S. store in Huntley, Illinois, and its 3,000th international store in
Panama City, Panama making 8,000 total stores for the system.[23] In August 2006, the
Domino's location in Tallaght, Dublin, Ireland, became the first store in Domino's history

to hit a turnover of $3 million (2.35 million) per year.[24] As of September 2006,


Domino's has 8,238 stores worldwide, which totaled $1.4 billion in gross income.
Innovations
In 2007, Domino's introduced its Veterans Delivering the Dream franchising program and
also rolled out its online and mobile ordering sites.[10] In 2008, 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.[26] 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 US phone ordering service 1-800DOMINOS has been Kevin Railsback.
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-criticizing ad campaign in
which consumers were filmed criticizing the then-current pizza's quality and chefs were
shown developing a new pizza.[28][29] The new pizza was unveiled that same month. The
following year, 2010 and Domino's 50th anniversary, the company hired J. Patrick Doyle
as its new CEO and 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.
In 2012, Domino's Pizza removed the word "Pizza" from their logo, to emphasize their nonpizza products. At the same time, Domino's introduced a new logo that removed the blue
rectangle and text under the domino in the logo, and changed the formerly all-red domino
to be blue on the side with two dots and red on the side with one dot.

4. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
(a)Research design:
The controlling plan for a marketing research study in which the methods and
procedures for collecting and analyzing the information is to be collected is known
as Research Design or a framework or plan for a study that guides the collection
and analysis of the data

(b)Research method /data sources:


Descriptive research
A research design in which the major emphasis is on determining the frequency with
which something occurs. For example, how often users access internet in a given
month. The focus of descriptive research is to provide an accurate description for
something that is occurring.
Data Source:
In this project both primary data as well as secondary data are used.
PRIMARY DATA: Primary data used in this project is collected through three
sources:

Questionnaire Method
Direct Personal Interview Method
Observation Method

SECONDARY DATA: It is not possible to collect first hand information for each &
everything so secondary data from various sources like t.v, internet ,reports etc.

(c)Sampling:
A fine subset of the population, selected from it with the objectives of investigating its
properties is called a sample and the number of unit in the sample is known as sample
size. Sampling is a tool which enables us to draw conclusion about the characteristics of
the population after studying only those subjects or items that are included in the
sample. In sampling method only few units of the population is considered. The choice
of an appropriate sampling design is of keeping in view the objectives and scope of the
enquiry and the type of the universe to be sampled

(i)Sampling techniques:
Random sampling: A random sampling is done in such a way that each member of the
universe has a change of being selected, which enables statistics procedures to be used
under the result to estimate sampling.
Non random sampling: In the non-random sampling the chance of any particular unit
in the population being selected is unknown. The judgments sampling method under nonrandom sampling method was adopted for the study with a
sample size of 50
respondents. In this method a designed number of sample unit is selected deliberately or
purposely depending upon the objectives of the enquirer so that only the important items
representing the true characteristics of the population are included in the sample.
(ii)Area of samplingIn this study primary data plays a vital role. The process of choosing the correct number of
respondents is nothing but sampling procedure.
Sampling area: Bhopal city
(iii)Sampling Size50 is the number of items to be selected from the universe to constitute the sample. The
method used here is random sampling and on- the spot sampling, where the samples are
selected without considering any particular quality.
(iv) Sample MethodRandom Sampling

(d)Research field:
The study has been analyzed from the different regions of the Bhopal city. The main
regions surveyed are as follow:

Lalghati
New market
M.P nagar

5.CONSUMER SATISFACTION AND PRODUCT PROFILE


CONSUMER SATISFACTION
Consumer satisfaction, a term frequently used in marketing, is a measure of how products
and services supplied by a company meet or surpass customer expectation.
It is seen as a key performance indicator within business and is part of thefour of a
Balanced Scorecard. In a competitive marketplace where businesses compete for
customers, customer satisfaction is seen as a key differentiator and increasingly has
become a key element of business strategy. Within organizations, customer satisfaction
ratings can have powerful effects. They focus employees on the importance of fulfilling
customers expectations. Furthermore, when these ratings dip, they warn of problems that
can affect sales and profitability. These metrics quantify an important dynamic. When a
brand has loyal customers, it gains positive word-of-mouth marketing, which is both free
and highly effective. Therefore, it is essential for businesses to effectively manage customer
satisfaction. To be able do this, firms need reliable and reprehensive measures of
satisfaction. In researching satisfaction, firms generally ask customers whether their
product or service has met or exceeded expectations. Thus, expectations area key factor
behind satisfaction. When customers have high expectations and the reality falls short,
they will be disappointed and will likely rate their experience as less than satisfying. For
this reason, a luxury resort, for example, might receive a lower satisfaction rating than a
budget motel even though its facilities and service would be deemed superior in absolute
terms.
The Market Scenario

India among top 10 markets for weekly fast food consumption, an online survey has found.
Most of the countries are from the Asia-pacific region with the US being the exemption.
According to an A C Neilson study of 28markets across the US, Europe and the Asia
-Pacific, carried out through the internet in interviews with more than 14000 consumers,
Asians are the worlds greatest fast food fans. Percentage of adult population eating at
takeaway restaurants at least on ceevery week:
Hong Kong 61 %
Malaysia

59 %

Philippines 54 %
Singapore

50 %

Thailand

44 %

China

41 %

India

37 %

Europe

11 %

Among the international fast food chains and local operators, Dominos emerges as the
most popular of all takeaway options with 54% of Americans, 75% of Europeans and 64%
of Asians. Dominos is most visited in Australia (84%) KFC is most visited in China (42%),
Pizza hut is most visited in India (22%) A typical fast food meal in the India & other
Multinational companies consists of fries and a burger (or other main item).

The concept of ready-cooked food for sale is closely connected with urban development. In
Ancient Rome cities had street stands that sold bread and wine. A fixture of East Asian
cities is the noodle shop. Flat bread and falafelare today ubiquitous in the Middle East.
Popular Indian fast food dishes include vadapav, panipuri and dahi vada. Some trace the
modern history of fast food in America to July 7, 1912 with theopening of a fast food
restaurant called the Automat in New York. The Automat was a cafeteria with its prepared
foods behind small glass windows and coin-operated slots. Joseph Horn and Frank Hard
art had already opened the first Horn & Hard art Automat in Philadelphia in 1902, but
their Automat at Broadway and 13th Street, in New York City, created a sensation.
Numerous Automat restaurants were built around the country todeal with the demand.
Automats remained extremely popular throughout the1920s and 1930s. The company also
popularized the notion of take out food, with their slogan Less work for Mother .The
American company White Castle is generally credited with opening the second fast-food
outletin Wichita, Kansas in 1921, selling hamburgers for five cents from its inception and
spawned numerous competitors. It is arguable because most historians and Secondary
School textbooks state that A&W was the first fast food restaurant, which opened in
1919.Afterdiscovering that most of their profits came from hamburgers, the brothers closed
their restaurant for three months and reopened it in 1948 as a walk -up stand offering a
simple menu of hamburgers, French fries, shakes, coffee ,and Coca-Cola, served in
disposable paper wrapping. As a result, they were able to produce hamburgers and fries
constantly, without waiting for customer orders, and could serve them immediately;
hamburgers cost 15cents, about half the price at a typical dinner. Their streamlined
production method, which they named the Speedee Service System, was influenced
by the production line innovations of Henry Ford. In the cities of Roman antiquity, much

of the urban population living in insulate, multi-storey apartment blocks, depended on


food vendors for muchof their meals. On New Year's Day 2008 a study was conducted
worldwide counting the number of fast food restaurants per person. The UK has claimed
this title with Australia second and the United States third. England alone accounted for
25% of all fast food
PROBLEMS IN THE ORGANISATION
Trans fats caused problems for Dominos. Trans fats are formed when liquid vegetable oils
go through a chemical process called hydrogenation. Common in a range of food products
biscuits, chips, doughnuts, crackers the hydrogenated vegetable fat is used by food
processors because it is solid at room temperature and has a longer shelf life. In September
2002, Dominos issued a statement announcing a significant reduction of trans fats in its
fried menu items French fries, chicken Mc Nuggets, Filet-O-Fish, Hash Browns and crispy
chicken sandwiches with the introduction of improved cooking oil in all of its 13,000
restaurants. The change was supposed to be completed by February 2003. However,
dominos encountered operational issues and the oil was not changed. An anti-trans fat
group claims that dominos deliberately allowed the public to be misled. Legal action has
forced Dominos to give effective notice to the public that the oil was not changed. In
Europe and the US, food makers are under growing pressure from consumer groups to cut
the trans fat content in food products.
Advertising and sponsorship.
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 catchphrase 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 March 31, 2009 and promised to reimburse store owners for the pizzas.[57]

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 another 1993 lawsuit, 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 awarded nearly $80 million, but accepted a payout of $15 million.[59] The guarantee

was dropped that same year because of the "public perception of reckless driving and
irresponsibility", according to then-CEO Tom Monaghan.[59]
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.[60]
The company continues to offer the 30 minute guarantee for orders placed in its stores
situated in Colombia, India, Vietnam, and Turkey.
In Malaysia and Singapore, a refund is instead substituted with a "Free Regular Pizza
Voucher".[61][62]
In India, the guarantee is for 300 ($5) and is valid for an order of less than 4 pizzas.
International

operations

countries

with

domino's pizza:

Domino's Pizza currently has locations in 73 countries. It has its stores in 5,700 cities
worldwide (2,900 international and 2,800 in the US). Domino's has 10,988 stores as of the
first quarter of 2014, with 774 in the UK, 4,986 in the US, and 715 in India.[63][64][65] In
most cases, Domino's has master franchise agreements with one company per country, but
three companies have acquired multiple master franchise agreements, covering a number
of countries:

The rights to own, operate, and franchise branches of the chain in Australia, New
Zealand, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, andMonaco are currently owned by
Australian Domino's Pizza Enterprises, having bought the master franchises from
the parent company in 1993 (Australian and New Zealand franchises) and 2006
(European franchises).

The master franchises for the UK and Ireland were purchased in 1993 by the British
publicly listed Domino's Pizza Group, which acquired the master franchise for
Germany in 2011 and Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Luxembourg in August 2012
by buying the Swiss master franchise holder, with an option to acquire the Austrian
master franchise as well.[66][67][68]

The master franchises for India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh are currently
owned by the Indian company Jubilant FoodWorks.

India has become the largest international market for Domino's outside its home
market. Indian pizza flavors like paneer pizza, chicken tikka masala pizza, and
kheema do pyaza pizza are selling internationally.[63]

In 2013, Domino's UK and Ireland published a video showing a proof-of-concept


"DomiCopter", a drone capable of delivering a pizza.[69]

The rights to own, operate, and franchise branches of the chain in Paraguay is
currently owned by Grupo Vierci,[70] opening the first restaurant in 2014.

PRODUCT PROFILE

6. CONTROVERSIES

1. Offering Potentially Harmful Gluten-Free Crusts In 2012


Come on Dominos, did you not know the constant bugbears of being gluten-free?
What was the point in even offering this as an option but then openly saying that as
the bases were prepared next to the regular ones, that cross-contamination could
happen?
When the other side of the gluten-barrier is a world of rashes, joint-ache and all sorts
of demonic gastro-pain, its either eat or not eat, not anything close to exercising
caution.

2. Replacing Their Wedges From Somewhere Else


Now this is the sort of thing you expect of some lesser-known, maybe lesser
financially-equipped outlets the old Ill just check in the back *runs to the
supermarket* routine. However, on July 3rd 2014 a loyal Dominos pizza maker was
off down the local market nabbing some discount wedges to fill their boxes.
Supply and demand you might say, and although the lad should be given props for
ingenuity, the fact that the price difference between some discounted wedges and
what Dominos were selling was 3 means its still pretty shocking but damn good
business at the time.

3. Clarifying Where They Would Deliver Based On Race


Weve all been the eternal watch-tapping customer after ordering and ardently
staring at the In Progress screen, but what if you live in a particularly bad area where
the driver themselves may be put at risk?Back in 2000, some outlets limited their
drivers from delivering in certain areas due to robberies and other attacks in crimeheavy neighbourhoods, therefore Dominos had to settle on a new policy that wouldnt
judge an area on a perceived racial connotations.
Courtesy of the NY Times, Dominos Vice President Tim McIntyre stated, Its a
reality in the U.S. that some neighbourhoods are dangerous. Weve taken steps to
keep our people from being victims of crime in those places, and in doing so weve
found ourselves being accused of discrimination.Since then Dominos must collate
with local law enforcement and community members to evaluate an area and ensure
their pizzas get delivered as far as possible.

4. Having To Pay Out $1.28 Million To Rectify Wage Problems


Its one thing to question your pay check when youre sure you deserve more, and
another to actually follow through on bringing it up with management, but back in
February 2014 a string of workers were fired just for doing exactly this.
Dominos later ended up instigating a payback scheme for all delivery drivers to at least
attempt to get back in their good graces and solve the issue, ranging from $400 to
$61,300 based off their tenure with the company.

5. The Video Of Two Employees From 2009


The two were arrested before they could contaminate and ruin any more deliciouslybaked doughy goodness. They thought it would be funny to add certain unwanted
items to the pizzas before people consumed them.Although Dominos would end up
waiting a full 24 hours before responding publically, when they finally did through a
Youtube video that fully explained their position, all was forgiven.

Since the road to improvement is never ending, so this study also suffers from certain
limitations. Some of them are as follows:
Scope of project is limited in the sense that only Dominos has been taken for
consumer research.
The extent of the survey was Bhopal only. So the suggestions or arguments
given in the report may not hold true for other locations in India.
Questionnaire method involves some uncertainty of response. Co-operation on
the part of informants, in some cases, was difficult to presume.
Because of time constraints and reserve constraints, a mix of convenient
sampling and judgement (Probability & Random) sampling was used.
Also because of above mentioned constraints, the sample size chosen for the
survey was 50 people.
It is possible that the information supplied by the informants may be incorrect.
