...Pizza Delivery Position Paper “I’m damned if I do, and I’m damned if I don’t,” (Old Saying). Life is filled with hard choices. In fact, the line between right and wrong action can be so blurred at times, that the morally correct action can truly be a mystery. This is why ethics is so important; because it allows one to sharpen their intellect and be able to discern right action from wrong. However, one part which even gives ethical reasoning a run for its money, is a decision where both outcomes are, by all estimations, equally as bad. In summation, Domino’s pizza has started a practice with one of its branches which disallows drivers to deliver pizzas to certain neighborhoods in their zone. As a part of this practice, Domino’s has created a map of its deliver radius and marked areas where it will allow drivers to deliver to and where it won’t allow drivers to deliver to. This policy was first implemented, because many employees where being robbed and murdered in these particular neighborhoods. Eventually certain members of the community, who lived in these “bad” neighborhoods, protested and said that these practices were pronounced acts of racism. Eventually other political groups got involved, such as the American Civil Liberties Union, who criticized this practice because all the targeted neighborhoods were predominantly minority neighborhoods. When first examining this problem, we see that there is one single underlying issue at the heart of the problem; is this practice...

...Luis Molina Writing 2 Ms. Katherine Hubbard 10/23/2015 Business communication issue Domino’s Pizza communication issue Effective communication is essential to the success of any business organization. Since the world is becoming a global village it is of utmost importance to effectively communicate within and outside of an organization. However, due to the large organizational sizes and the many organizational structures it becomes very difficult to get any message across. Effective communication can improve relations, motivate and ultimately best results for the company in the long run. The business communication issue that I am going to talk about happened in the year 2009, in North Carolina. Two employers of the fast-food Domino’s Pizza restaurant thought it was going to be funny to record and post a video playing rudely with the food at the same time they were cooking it. This video was posted on YouTube and automatically became to one of the most popular videos of the moment. This wasn’t that funny for the company, because this video made them lose all the good reputation they gained during the years with the hard work of many workers. The duo created a total of five videos, one of the videos showed an individual sticking mozzarella cheese up his nose and then blowing the cheese on a sandwich, among other unsanitary and stomach-turning activities. An estimated 1 million people viewed these videos before they were pulled two days later. (Justin Gray, 2011) This...

...Domino’s Pizza Demand and Forecast ECO550 Rigo Benitez Dr. Atia Yasmeen Strayer University Demographics and Independent Variables Analysis Domino’s Pizza is planning to open a store in Annandale, VA, a median-size town about 10 miles outside of Washington D.C. Domino’s Pizza will do a demand and forecast to determine if it’s a good decision to open the store. The independent variables are population, mean household income, and pizza price as the independent variable. Annandale’s census population was 41,008 at the 2010 census, down from 54,994 in 2000 due to the splitting of the western part form Wakefield and Woodburn CDP's. The population and household income should help determine if people are willing to pay the pizza price and how much is the demand for pizza. The population helps determine the demand for pizza because of the law of the demand, the larger population the larger the demand. The household income will help also because the more disposable income the more people will buy a common good. Pizza is a common good that people will buy more often if they have more disposable income. The following chart display the variables used to determine pizza demand. Testing Coefficient of Determination Analysis Using Data Regression Analysis tools on Excel, the following results are used to determine the pizza demand in Annandale and if Domino’s Pizza should go ahead with the decision open the store.

...Domino’s Pizza Case: Geographical integration facing local specificities The U.S. Pizza Industry is not really attractive due to a lack of concentration¹ in the domestic market according to Porter’s five forces analysis. Despite this obvious lack of attractiveness, Domino’s Pizza (later referred to as «Domino’s») were able to make a 8% profit² relying on an inimitable competitive advantage: the 30-minute delivery guarantee made possible by a very specific computer system developed by the company. Facing few growth opportunities in the domestic market, the company decided to adopt a geographical integration strategy in order to increase market shares. Since market entry is riskier when there are cultural differences between the company and the new market, Domino’s adopted a master franchise model of operations that allowed the company to minimize its risks in foreign markets while earning higher returns through the royalties system. This memo addresses the question why Domino’s Pizza have been so successful in some countries and failed miserably in others whereas it was using the same franchising agreement system in every foreign country. To this end, we will highlight key success factors of geographical expansion through the franchise system: the company’s ability to transfer their resources to franchisees and to adapt to local tastes. We will then suggest Domino’s to improve their appraisal of the local environment and ensure better respect of their procedures to achieve higher...

Organizations must perform the exercises connected with basic achievement variables at the most astounding conceivable level keeping in mind the end goal to accomplish their expected destinations and accomplish upper hand. Recognizing basic achievement variables can give business groups understanding into which assignments are genuinely vital, giving perspectives from which to coordinate the accomplishment of a system or task. (Rouse, 2007) The beginnings of the present day pharmaceutical industry can be followed to the late nineteenth century, when dyestuffs were found to have disinfectant properties. Penicillin was a real disclosure, and research and development turned out to be immovably settled inside the area. The business sector built up some strange attributes. Choice making was in the hands of medicinal experts though patients and payers like governments or insurance agencies had little learning or impact. Hence, restorative experts were obtuse to cost yet powerless to the endeavors of deals delegates. Two main developments occurred in the 1970s.
