Global Brands SA Activities
Global Brands opened its first Domino`s pizzeria in Eaux Vives (Geneva) in January 2000. Since then, the Company has expanded to twelve Company operated stores across Switzerland. At present, there are four stores in Geneva, five stores in Zurich, one store in Neuchatel, one store in Lausanne and one store in Basel. Further stores are also planned this year.
Global Brands is currently expanding throughout Switzerland with the aim of opening 50 Domino`s pizzerias. The further development will combine company operated stores as well as stores sub-franchised to franchisees.
Domino`s Pizza Switzerland offers an excellent menu of premium pizza (including the Country speciality “Raclette” pizza) along with a range of side items and desserts (including “Cinnastix”) and of course drinks. All stores offer free delivery within 30 minutes of receipt of the order. For further information please visit our multi-language website, www.dominos.ch.
Global Brands SA headquarters are based in Kloten (near Zurich) and is responsible for business development, operations, marketing, finance, human resources and training for the Domino’s operation. As a result of this experience, Global Brands SA has a strong operational base and a full understanding of cultural issues across the language markets of Switzerland and an understanding of the Cantonal requirements which divide up Switzerland into 26 segments. In HR, we are fully aware of the issues of labour law and have significant experience in the fully unionised labour market.
As part of the strategic plan for 2009, the Company has entered into strategic partnerships with HAVI group (for Supply Chain) and with Deliciel for dough production. This has improved operations and quality and will ensure that future expansion can be readily accommodated.
Furthermore, the company has developed strong supplier relationships covering meat, fish, dairy, fresh produce and beverages from local to international sourcing.
