Domino's Pizza Exits Italy After Failed Patronage: Bloomberg

  • Domino’s Pizza Inc's (NYSE:DPZ) final lot of branches in Italy have lowered their shutters due to poor patronage, Bloomberg reported.
  • The company started its operations in Italy in 2015.
  • The brand could not withstand competition from local restaurants, which gained an advantage by expanding delivery services during the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Domino’s had run out of cash to manage its operations and sought protection from creditors.
  • The chain’s rapid expansion plan failed as local pizza makers scaled up deliveries or signed deals with third-party services such as Deliveroo PLC (OTC:DROOF), Just Eat Takeaway.Com N.V. (OTC:JTKWY) or Glovo.
  • Price Action: DPZ shares are trading lower by 0.99% at $391.00 in premarket on the last check Tuesday.
