History

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]

On 24 February 2011, Jubilant FoodWorks signed a master franchise agreement with American coffeehouse chain Dunkin' Donuts to operate the brand in India.[7] 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.[8][9]

On 19 March 2014, the 700th Domino's Pizza outlet was opened at HUDA City Centre metro station in Sector-29, Gurgaon, Haryana.[10] The company opened 47 new restaurants between January–March 2014 and 150 outlets in the 2013–2014 financial year.[11] 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.[12]

In 2017, live bugs were found in Domino's pizza seasoning sachets in Delhi. A video of the same went viral.[13] [14] This prompted Domino's to stop giving seasoning sachets for some time. When they restarted, they changed the packing from transparent to opaque.

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.[15][16]

On 1 January 2021, Jubilant FoodWorks purchased a 10.76% stake in Barbeque Nation Hospitality Limited for ₹92 crore.[17]
