Jubilant FoodWorks Limited is an Indian food service company based in Noida, Uttar Pradesh which holds the master franchise for Domino's Pizza in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, for Popeyes in India, Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan, and also for Dunkin' Donuts in India.[3] The company is a part of the Jubilant Bhartia Group, owned by Shyam Sunder Bhartia (husband of Shobhana Bhartia).[4]

History[edit]

The company was incorporated on 16 March 1995 as Domino's Pizza India Private Ltd. and began operations in 1996. It changed its name to Jubilant FoodWorks Ltd in 2009.[5] The company opened India's first Domino's Pizza outlet in New Delhi in 1996.[6]

It was headed by Ajay Kaul since 2005. Pratik Pota became the CEO from April 2017.[7]

On 24 February 2011, Jubilant FoodWorks signed a master franchise agreement with American coffeehouse chain Dunkin' Donuts to operate the brand in India.[8] Jubilant FoodWorks opened India's first Dunkin' Donuts outlet in Connaught Place, New Delhi in April 2012. Jubilant FoodWorks was named "Emerging Food Group of the Year" by The Economic Times in 2012.[9][10]

The company launched its first homegrown brand called Hong's Kitchen, offering fast casual Chinese dining, with the first restaurant opening at Eros Mall in Gurugram on 13 March 2019.[11][12]

On 24 March 2021, Jubilant FoodWorks announced that it had entered into a master franchise and development agreement with Restaurant Brands International to operate Popeyes restaurants in India, Bangladesh, Nepal and Bhutan.[13][14]

Acquistions[edit]

On 1 January 2021, Jubilant FoodWorks purchased a 10.76% stake in Barbeque Nation Hospitality Limited for ₹92 crore.[15] On 19 February 2021, the company announced that it would acquire complete ownership of Netherlands-based Fides Food Systems Coöperatief UA for £24.80 million through its subsidiary Jubilant Foodworks Netherlands BV. The acquisition marks Jubilant FoodWorks entry into the Eurasian market. Fides holds a 32.81% stake in DP Eurasia NV, which is the master franchisee for Dominos Pizza in Turkey, Russia, Azerbaijan and Georgia.[16][17][18]

Domino's Pizza[edit]

India[edit]

The first Domino's Pizza in India opened in New Delhi in 1996.[6] India was Domino's second-largest market in 2019, behind the United States surpassing United Kingdom.[19][20] In December 2014, India became Domino's 2nd largest market.[21] Domino's Pizza operates 1,325 stores in 282 Indian cities as on 31 December 2019.[22]

Domino's began accepting online orders in 2011, and online orders accounted for approximately 18-20% of total sales as of December 2013.[19][20][23]

On 19 March 2014, the 700th Domino's Pizza outlet was opened at HUDA City Centre metro station in Sector-29, Gurgaon, Haryana.[24] The company opened 47 new restaurants between January–March 2014 and 150 outlets in the 2013–2014 financial year.[22] In January 2016, Domino's opened its 1000th outlet.

In 2016, Centre for Science and Environment(CSE) reported that their pizza bread were laced with toxins and carcinogens such as potassium bromate and potassium iodate. Domino's did not respond to the CSE queries Potassium bromate is a Category 2B carcinogen, meaning it can cause liver cancer.[25]

In 2017, live bugs were found in Domino's pizza seasoning sachets in Delhi. A video of the same went viral.[26] [27] This prompted Domino's to stop giving seasoning sachets for some time. When they restarted, they changed the packing from transparent to opaque.

Bangladesh[edit]

Domino's Pizza outlets in Bangladesh are owned and operated by Jubilant Golden Harvest Ltd., a joint venture between Jubilant FoodWorks and the Golden Harvest Group.[28] The first outlet opened in February 2019. There are currently 7 outlets in Dhaka, Bangladesh.[29]
