The company that oversees the Domino’s Pizza brand in Russia said it will file for bankruptcy there, signaling a definitive end to its operations in that country nearly 18 months after President Vladimir Putin launched an unprovoked invasion of neighboring Ukraine.
DP Eurasia, the franchisee for Domino’s in Europe and Asia, cited unspecified business challenges in Russia, where it operated more than 100 restaurants. The U.S.-based Dominos Pizza has said it cut off financial support for the Russian business in December 2022.
A bankruptcy filing is now forthcoming, the company said.
Where does Papa John’s sit in your rankings?
I haven’t had Little Caesar’s in a long time, but Papa John and Domino’s are both pretty solid options, and I like your term calling them “fast food pizza.”
We’re talking about pizza here. What relevance does Papa John’s have?
I’ll be honest, I think I ate papa johns like two decades ago, so I have no idea. They just aren’t around me. But yeah if you think about it, they’re totally fast food. Cheap and consistent, you know what you’re getting. But if you want something GOOD you gotta go with a real, local pizza place.
