Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 21 Oct, 09:58 · Archive

Domino's Pizza's quarterly sales growth slowed to 2.3 per cent despite new thinner pizzas and fried chicken.

Domino's Pizza has reported slower sales growth for the latest quarter despite launching new product ranges. Like-for-like sales growth slowed to 2.3 per cent in the three months to September 30, following a 5.2 per cent increase in the previous quarter. Total sales rose by 3.5 per cent for the quarter, with total order growth of 2.6 per cent.

The London-listed pizza business said it was boosted by 'strong sales' from its Italianos range of thinner pizzas, launched earlier this year. The group also credited its Chick 'N' Dip fried chicken brand, which launched last year to appeal to younger consumers. The company continued to grow in August and September following a World Cup-linked boost.

Chief executive Nicola Frampton told investors the company had delivered a 'strong performance' but recognised there is 'a lot of work still to be done'. Domino's said its performance has been in line with market expectations and it expects to meet earnings guidance for the year. The company has seen sales bounce back this year after weaker orders during a 'difficult' 2025.
