Pizza (NYSE: DPZ), the recognized world leader in pizza
delivery, has started the year with two new market
openings ̶ Azerbaijan and Cambodia. These two markets offer exciting
opportunities to bring the great taste, service and pizza expertise

Domino's Pizza in Azerbaijan is
owned by Fides, a private equity company that holds master
franchise rights to Domino's in Azerbaijan and two other markets, and is
operated by Aslan Saranga, the
brand's general manager. The first store opened in
Baku, the capitol of Azerbaijan, and is committed to delivering
hot, quality pizzas to the local residents. The new pizza theater
store layout in Baku features an
open concept design, allowing for customers to watch their pizzas
being made and baked, bringing the art and fun of pizza making to
the forefront.
The new Domino's Pizza store in Cambodia is owned by D.Pizza PLC, a joint
venture between CBM Corporation. Co. Ltd and Evolution Capital,
Thailand. The group has extensive
experience in the retail food business with multiple international
food chains under their management. The new store opened in the
capitol, Phnom Penh, and hosted
Julie Chung, deputy chief of mission
at the U.S. Embassy in Phnom Penh,
at the grand opening celebration. The new store also utilizes the
pizza theater design and includes a comfortable lobby, indoor
seating and an open-area viewing area of the food preparation
process.
