Every major pizza chain in America is shrinking from extra large to, well, I guess you’d call it a medium.
Pizza Hut’s closing 250 locations under the not-so-great sounding “Hut Forward” initiative.
Papa John’s is closing 300, with 200 set to shut down by 12/31.
Domino’s biggest Australian franchisee is closing 205 more. Even the Indie shops are taking it on the chin.
Gina Maria’s Pizza, a Twin Cities institution since ‘75, shut all four of their locations and filed Chapter 7. Fiorella in San Francisco just filed its fourth Chapter 11. How do you even do that?
Seriously, if you don’t play the Fear song while you read this post, you are truly missing out. I play it every time I order Domino’s. This song was featured in one of the greatest films of the ‘80s, Repo Man
Delivery apps were the biggest single culprit, and the math is freakin’ brutal, not vague.
DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub typically take 20-30% commission per order.
