“ Like most corporate success stories , Domino ’ s started out small – with just one store in 1960 . However , in 1978 the 200th Domino ’ s store opened , and things really began to cook ,” the firm claims . As of the third quarter of last year , the company operated a network of 15,300 franchises in more than 85 markets . “ Domino ’ s has built its 50 + year success around its franchisees – independent business owners with a common vision and mission to be the number one pizza company in the world . Much of this success has come from our franchise business model , which is primarily an internally-based franchise system .”
