Milestone store coming in Winnipeg,
Manitoba
WINDSOR, Ontario, Jan. 14, 2016 /CNW/ -- On Monday, Jan. 18, nearly 33 years after opening
its first store in Winnipeg,
Manitoba, Domino's Pizza will open the doors to its
400th Canadian store. The recognized world leader in pizza
delivery opened its first Canadian store – the first one opened
outside the U.S. – in Winnipeg in
1983, marking the brand's foray into international growth.
Currently Domino's has stores in every Province and two of three
Territories.
"I am so proud of all our franchisees and team members for their
dedication and hard work in achieving this milestone for Domino's
Pizza," said Mike Schlater, Domino's
Pizza of Canada's chief executive
officer. "We're thrilled we have the opportunity to celebrate our
400th store in Winnipeg where it
all started."
Brian Trier, VP for the Americas
Region, added: "The opening of our 400th location in Winnipeg is a huge achievement for our
Canadian operations. Our international team is very proud to share
this special milestone alongside our franchisees, their teams and
our valued customers. We know it is the hard work of our local
partners every day in their communities that will continue to set
us apart from our competition."
In honor of the 400th store, Domino's Pizza of Canada will make a $4,000 donation to the CancerCare Manitoba
Foundation. Domino's will celebrate the opening of the store with a
ribbon-cutting event on Monday, Jan.
18 at 2:00. The store is located in
Winnipeg at 468 Osbourne Rd.
In attendance at the event will include Schlater, Trier,
Michael Curran, president of
Domino's Pizza of Canada, along
with Craig Young, Greg Guffei and Rachel
Alison, Domino's Pizza franchise owners of the 400th
store.
The 400th store marks Young, Guffei and Alison's 10th
Domino's store in Winnipeg. Young
started with Domino's as a delivery expert in 1991; Guffei's career
with Domino's began in 1998 as an assistant manager, and Alison
joined the company in 2006 as a pizza maker. They have worked their
