The big reason why Domino’s is selling fewer pizzas
Domino's delivers pizzas to Glastonbury punters stuck in huge traffic queues
Domino's reported an increase in overall sales performance despite a noticeable dip in customer order numbers, attributing the growth to higher prices.
Total system sales rose by 2.1 per cent to £382.7 million for the three months ending 29 September, with like-for-like sales seeing a 1 per cent uplift.
The volume of pizzas sold decreased, with order numbers declining by 1.5 per cent year-on-year to 17.1 million, directly linked to a 5 per cent increase in pricing.
The takeaway pizza giant anticipates that challenging market conditions will continue to suppress order volumes well into 2026.
Chief executive Andrew Rennie described the recent performance as 'solid' amidst a weakening food delivery sector and confirmed the company is on track to achieve full-year profit expectations.
