International openings now total six new markets in the past 12 months

Domino’s Pizza, a recognised world leader in pizza delivery, has started the year with two new market openings ̶ Azerbaijan and Cambodia. These two markets offer exciting opportunities to bring the great taste, service and pizza expertise of Domino’s to even more new customers around the globe.

“We’re off to a great start in 2015 with the opening of these two new markets,” said Ritch Allison, president of Domino’s Pizza International. “Our global store growth momentum means that we’re opening many beautiful new stores worldwide and attracting new customers to our dynamic brand. Now, customers in Azerbaijan and Cambodia can experience the quality, delicious pizzas enjoyed by Domino’s fans around the world.”

Domino’s Pizza in Azerbaijan is owned by Fides, a private equity company that holds master franchise rights to Domino’s in Azerbaijan and two other markets, and is operated by Aslan Saranga, the brand’s general manager. The first store opened in Baku, the capitol of Azerbaijan, and is committed to delivering hot, quality pizzas to the local residents. The new pizza theatre store layout in Baku features an open concept design, allowing for customers to watch their pizzas being made and baked, bringing the art and fun of pizza making to the forefront.
