Domino's franchisee files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Pizza lovers will have a harder time finding their favorite slice, as an economic downturn in the fast-food pizza dining sector has resulted in major chain franchisees closing 100s of restaurant locations and filing for bankruptcy.

The nation's largest pizza dining chain, Domino's Pizza, is among the pizza giants whose franchisees have filed for bankruptcy

Major pizza chain Papa John's, which has not filed for bankruptcy, announced in its fourth-quarter earnings call that it will close 300 underperforming restaurants, including 200 by the end of 2026. The company did not reveal a deadline for closing the remaining 100.

Papa John's also said it would cut 7% of its workforce.

1. Make it so

2. Then possibly, we'll see more real local pizza joints instead of chain garbage.

5. They tend to be insanely overpriced. n/t

3. At least locally... Papa johns is inedible cardboard.

Dominos reworked their recipe years ago and it pretty good.

Best pizza in my area is Tony's or Winner's

4. Nobody goes there if they want pizza. These are places people go

if they need something cheap. Especially if it's to feed a large number of people .

But the local independent owned places have the best pizzas.

6. Wrong. The best pizza is made in Naples, Italy.

Nothing in the U.S., chain or "local," compares.

7. Yes, but I'm just talking about the US
