US-based Domino’s Pizza has announced its plans to open 880 outlets across Italy by 2030.
The restaurant chain currently operates 28 outlets in Italy, where it forayed in 2015.
Domino’s is reportedly scouting entrepreneurs to invest in its franchising plan.
Each delivery restaurant would have about 14 employees, six of whom would be delivery personnel.
The franchising plan includes the opening of 14 chains in Milan, three in Brescia and two each in Bergamo and Monza.
Domino’s also intends to open outlets in other Italian cities such as Como, Lecco, Varese, Mantua, Cremona, Lodi and Pavia.
