EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report is based on services offered by dominos and also to test the quality of
service dimensions of Domino’s. India's quick service restaurant market worth $13
billion is growing 25-30 percent a year on the back of changing and busy lifestyle,
fast emerging middle class population and surging disposable income, the industry
will continue to grow at a pace in coming years. It now accounts for roughly half
of all restaurant revenues in the developed countries and continues to expand there
and in many other industrial countries in the coming years. But some of the most
rapid growth is occurring in the developing world; where it's radically changing the
way people eat. Domino's Pizza India Ltd. has proceeded to become one of the
largest and fastest growing international food chains in South Asia. The first
Domino's Pizza store in India opened in January 1996, at New Delhi. Today,
Domino's Pizza India has grown into a countrywide network around 411 outlets in
95 cities
This report provides extensive research and rational analysis about service
concept of Domino’s. and evaluation of current service marketing mix and
evaluation of customer gaps in different service quality dimensions.
.
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
To find out the customer gap , i.e., what customers expect
from company on various parameters and what they
actually perceive.
To find out the motivational factor which insist customers
to choose Domino’s.
To understand general spending habit of consumers
To understand important satisfaction factors
The Comparison of expenditure done by the consumers on
eating out and on Domino’s.
To know the various factors or services where Domino’s is
supposed to work hard in order to improve the overall
experience of the customers.
QUICK-SERVICE RESTAURANT INDUSTRY IN INDIA
QSR or fast food concept was introduced in India about a decade and a half ago
when American brands like McDonalds, KFC, Domino’s Pizza and Pizza Hut
entered into the Indian market. These brands have undergone the initial challenge
of charting the new territory and today have not only found acceptance but are part
and parcel of Indian consumer’s dining habits. The brands which have recently
entered in India are Quiznos and Dunkin’ Donut. Now, more of the American
brands like Denny’s, Pollo Tropical, Applebee’s and Johnny Rockets are ready to
take plunge in Indian QSR market. India's quick service restaurant market worth
$13 billion is growing 25-30 percent a year on the back of a generation of young
and increasingly wealthy consumers with an appetite for western tastes. In the past,
most of the multinational food brands have opted for franchise model to enter and
or grow their footprint in India and the trend has only increased over the years
because now more and more franchisees observe corporate-like culture and high
professional standards leading to enhanced profitability. At present the market size
and growth projection between organized and unorganized food retailing industry
stands as follows:
84%
16%
UNORGANIZED
ORGANIZED 55% 45% UNORGANIZED

KEY DRIVERS IN INDIAN QUICK SERVICE RESTAURANTS
LOW PENETRATION OF MODERN RESTAURANT OUTLETS
India and the rest of South Asia have a low penetration of modern restaurants
compared to more developed markets. Most developed markets have more than 0.5
outlets per 1,000 people – Japan has 1.1, Canada has 1.0 and the US has 0.7 while
the penetration in most South Asian countries is equal to (as in India’s case) 0.2.
This represents a growth opportunity for Jubilant Foods Works (JFL) in India
where competition and the entrance of new players via franchises have intensified
over the years.
ATTRACTIVE DEMOGRAPHICS
India enjoys attractive demographics in terms of population growth, a large
younger base (the under-25 age group represents close to 54% of the total
population). Growing income levels and increase in purchasing power has led to a
higher spending capacity which provides a huge opportunity for penetration for the
food services sector
RISING URBANIZATION
Ordering in or eating out is more prevalent in the cities and towns than in the
rural areas. The average spends on ordering in the Tier 1 or Tier 2 towns is
double the average spends in the Tier 3 towns.
CHANGING FOOD HABITS AND EATING OUT CULTURE
Increased individual incomes and growth in middle class has impacted greater
demand for convenience foods. Eating out or ordering in meals for consumption at
home has become a popular trend. According to the Technopak Report 2009,
ordering in or bringing in meals from restaurants is a fairly common practice, with
two out of three households in India having done so in one month. In fact, most
who have ordered in or brought food from outside have done it multiple times.
STILL LOW SHARE OF THE MARKET FOR FOOD & BEVERAGES
CONSUMED AWAY FROM HOME
Only 2% of monthly expenditure on food bought from outside or ordered-in by
households in India is spent on pizzas and pastas on a monthly basis. There is a
clear opportunities for QSR players like JFL to encourage eating out, given the low
base in India. Food and drinks consumed outside the home (restaurants, street
stands) represent only 19% of total food and drinks spending.
HISTORY
Like most corporate success stories, Domino's started out small - with just one
store in 1960. Domino's Pizza originated as a small pizza store owned by
Dominick Di Varti at the Michigan University campus in the US under the name
'Dominick's Pizza'. The pizza store was bought by two brothers who were
students at the University, Thomas S. Monaghan (Tom) and James S. Monaghan
(James) in 1960.It was re-christened Domino's Pizza in 1965.
INTRODUCTION
Domino’s vision: Exceptional people on a mission, to be the best pizza delivery
company in the world.
Jubilant Food Works Ltd. (formerly Domino's Pizza India Ltd) was incorporated in
March 1995 as the master franchisee for South Asia Pacific, of Domino's Pizza
International Inc., of USA. Moreover, the company holds the master franchisee
rights for Sri Lanka and Bangladesh through its wholly owned subsidiary. Mr.
Shyam S.Bhartia and Mr. Hari S. Bhartia of the Jubilant Group are the promoters
of the company. Since inception, Domino's Pizza India Ltd. has proceeded to
become one of the largest and fastest growing international food chains in South
Asia. The first Domino's Pizza store in India opened in January 1996, at New
Delhi. Today, Domino's Pizza India has grown into a countrywide network around
411 outlets in 95 cities.
STRATEGIES
POSITIONING WAR
When Domino's entered the Indian market, the concept of home delivery was still
in its nascent stages. It existed only in some major cities and was restricted to
delivery by the friendly neighbourhood fast food outlets. Eating out at 'branded'
restaurants was more prevalent.
GOING PLACES
Domino’s has selected their store locations wisely with focus on shopping malls,
multiplex complexes, metro stations, highways, offices spaces not only in Tier-1
but has also extended their foot print in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities reaching out to a
larger consumer base.
LOCALIZING THE MENU
Since its entry into India, Domino's introduced new toppings for Pizzas to cater to
the local tastes. Different flavours were introduced to cater to local population.
BRAND BUILDING THROUGH ADVERTISING
Domino's and Pizza Hut initially restricted their ad strategy to banners, hoardings
and specific promotions. In August 2000, Domino's launched the
'Hungry Kya? (Are You Hungry)' sequence of advertisements on television. In
2009 Domino’s rolled out a new campaign 'Khushiyon ki Home Delivery', to
promote the home delivery service of its latest offering. The campaign has been
created by Contract Advertising and positions the home delivery of pizza and pasta
as a very convenient service.
PRICING AND PROMOTION WARS
Through its 'Fun Meal for 4’ pack the Domino’s Pizza India offers four pizzas at
the rate starting at Rs 156. This has helped the speciality food franchise to enhance
the strength of its customer base. Domino's has introduced price cuts, discounts to
attract the customers. They offer comeback value to their customer.
SERVICE BLUEPRINT OF DOMINO’S:
7 P’S OF DOMINOS
PRODUCT & PRICE
The very brand name ―Domino’s‖ adds value to the products available in the
store. The quality and the hygiene of the pizzas and the other add-ons are taken
care of by the company or the franchisees by way of training to the employees.
Domino’s also takes pride on the innovation of many new products and ideas.
Some of these are as follows
Double Decadence:
Domino’s launched the first Double Decker pizza in the UK. Domino’s
Double Decadence is created when two thin and crispy dough bases are
sandwiched together with a layer of creamy cheese and herb sauce. The pizza is
then topped with vine ripened tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese and the customers;
choice of toppings.
Virtual Store:
To make take home pizza ordering more convenient for the customers,
Domino’s has designed an online service which features the customers’ favorites
and also the customers can order for pizzas by text message via mobile phones and
orders can be placed online. When the order online option is selected, the customer
is taken to the order form. And the customers has to enter the postcode of the
delivery address and then other delivery details like the phone number and e-mail
address has to be entered. Then the customer is taken to another page – the best
part of the process – pizza. The customer can select the pizza and the size of it and
also the customer has the option to create his/her own pizza and then pay for the
food either online using a debit or a credit card or to opt for paying the amount to
the person who delivers the pizza.
Domino’s Heat wave Bag:
Domino’s Heat wave hot bag was introduced in the year 1998. The Hot
bags contain a heating mechanism that is warmed by using electromagnetic energy.
This technology keeps the pizza oven-hot during the delivery.
General perception prevails that pizza prices are expensive and cannot be afforded
by many, but Domino’s pizza prices will make you think twice about that
statement. Domino’s also provide lots of offers and deals that give your much
discounted pizza prices.
First off, customers can get Pizza mania pizzas for prices as low as Rs. 39/- which
no other pizza chain offers in the country. The regular size Simply Veg pizzas start
from Rs. 60/- onwards and they have pizzas up to around Rs. 400/- Domino’s
caters to all price ranges so that customers can always find a pizza price that fits
their pocket.

4. The people spending 900 and above spends on domino’s in every above
mentioned denominations (less then 100, 100-300, 300-500,500 and above)
5. The no. of people spending less the 100 is more as compared to others
.
ONLINE ORDERING
Out of the total respondents 67.74% did not make orders online because of the
following reasons:-
1. Lack of awareness among the customers about the online order system of
domino’s.
2. As placing order online required connectivity of internet and a computer so
it is not always available to the customer.
3. Telephone ordering is more convenient then internet.
MOTIVATIONAL FACTORS BEHIND CHOOSING DOMINO’S
1. For Large group of respondents (41.94%) service quality is one of the major
motivation factors. The good thing about domino’s service is there timely
delivery that is in just 30 min and simultaneously the quality they deliver is
also good.
2. 29.03% of the respondents answered price as the motivation factor behind
choosing domino’s as the prices of the domino’s product is comparatively
less. This also includes the prices of pizza mania which costs only Rs 39 per
pizza and can be affordable by each and every customer visiting domino’s.
Very less no of people answered ambiance as the motivation factor because the
ambiance of domino’s outlets is not that much good and attractive.

QUALITY, a 0.307 unit increase in OVERALL SATISFACTION is predicted,
holding all other variables constant.
AMBIENCE-The coefficient for AMBIENCE is -0.319. So for every unit
increase in AMBIENCE, a 0.319 unit decrease in OVERALL SATISFACTION
is predicted, holding all other variables constant.
BRANDIMAGE- The coefficient for BRAND IMAGE is 0.109. So for every
unit increase in BRAND IMAGE, a 0.109 unit increase in OVERALL
SATISFACTION is predicted, holding all other variables constant.
STAFF BEHAVIOR-The coefficient for STAFF BEHAVIOR is -0.287. So for
every unit increase in STAFF BEHAVIOR, a 0.287 unit decrease in OVERALL
SATISFACTION is predicted, holding all other variables constant.
PRICE-The coefficient for PRICE is -0.015. So for every unit increase in
PRICE, a 0.015 unit decrease in OVERALL SATISFACTION is predicted,
holding all other variables constant.
DELIVERY TIME-The coefficient for DELIVERY TIME is 0.067. So for
every unit increase in AMBIENCE, a 0.067 unit increase in DELIVERY TIME
is predicted, holding all other variables constant.
DISCOUNTS-The coefficient for DISCOUNTS is -0.144. So for every unit
increase in DISCOUNTS, a 0.144 unit decrease in OVERALL SATISFACTION
is predicted, holding all other variables constant.
SIGNIFICANCE VALUE:
The coefficients of all the variable are less than 0.05[95% confidence interval]
So all the coefficients are not significantly different from 0.
From the above analysis it is clear that Quality, Brand image and Delivery time has
positive impact in overall satisfaction of consumers. Domino’s should maintain
the current performance level in those factors. But other factors have an negative
impact on overall performance. So Domino’s should work upon on those factors.

SUGGESTIONS AND CONCLUSIONS
From the study we understood that in which front Domino’s is lacking behind from
perspective of service qualities. Highest customer gap exists in reliability whereas
in case of responsiveness this is lowest.
Keeping the sentiments of Indian customers in mind and services offered by
Domino’s and Keeping our study focused on some of the key –areas of sensitivity
of customers preferences (analysis of factors which affects the preferences).
We can conclude that Domino’s should focus on the following factors:
1.Price
2.Ambience
3.Staff behavior
4. Quality of Pizzas
And Domino’s should try to lessen the customer gap in all the dimensions of
service quality—by improving following factors—
1. Keeping promise of 30 minutes delivery
2. Providing better quality of Pizzas Sales people should be more helpful
3. Sales people should be aware of all the items and prices
4. Operating hours—11 a.m to 11 p.m should be extended for delivery[online
and telephonic]
5. There should be a promotional activity to push up online ordering
6. Sales people should provide special attention to individual customers-it will
help to build relationship-as a result of that no. of repeat purchase would
increase.
7. Domino’s should focus on improvement of ambience in outlets.
We would not be surprised if Domino’s faces a huge bump in sales after improving
in the mentioned factors.
