About us

At Domino’s, we’re driven by a passion to connect people with faster, fresher, tastier food. With more than 900 stores and 26,000 team members, we are proud to be the largest pizza company in Australia & New Zealand – safely preparing and delivering thousands of hot, fresh pizzas to hungry customers every week, and an industry leader in food-technology having launched a number of world-firsts including delivering pizzas via drones and autonomous delivery vehicles (cool huh!). We are focused on being slow where it matters in making every pizza right, and fast where it counts in hustling them out the door, while keeping safety at the forefront, both in-store and out on the roads. We’re all about that #hustle – but doing it safely.
