Wichita, Kanas. They had the idea to open a pizza parlor. They borrowed $600 from their

mother, and opened the very first Pizza Hut. In 1959, the first franchise unit opened in

Brand Attitude

International brand with an Indian heart

Pizza Hut is one of the first international pizza chains with purely

vegetarian dine-i8ns at Chowpatty (Mumbai), Ahmedabad and Surat, which also serves

Jain menus. Pizza Hut has even opened two all-vegetarian restaurants in the Western

State of Gujarat to cater to the Jain religious community, whose members prefer not to

eat at places where meat is served.

Offering more than the international menu

International food chains typically offer only a few localized products in

other parts of the world. However, Pizza Huts local menu is as large as the international

one. According to Pizza Hut, the Indian food heritage is very rich, and hence Indians like

local flavors. The Tandoori range of pizzas, which was developed locally, has a menu

mix of over 20 per cent.

Brand Purchase Intention

Why Pizza Hut is preferred than other

Variety of Pizzas Good ambience Services offered Quality of pizzas Locationof the Outlet Waiting time in the outlet.Communication Mix

Advertising

Pizza Huts communication has also always struck a chord with th4e

Indian customers. It is very first television commercial in India featured a boy and

girl, who meet at a Pizza Hut restaurant in a traditional arranged marriage concept.

They lose their inhibitions when the pizza arrives. When the sequel went on air

featuring the same couple, now married, with the girls father consoling her over a

pizza as her bridegroom waits outside the restaurant to escort her after their wedding

the customers involvement was so complete that several wrote in to inquire

whether the couple had children.

The more recent campaign that was launched with the introduction of the

Tandoori pizzas featured a typical Indian wedding procession abandoning the

bridegroom when enticed by delicious aromas from a Pizza Hut restaurant. While the

famous Good times start with great pizzas slogan has been prominent in the

communication, the focus has remained on the best and most distinct pizzas.

Retail Environment of Pizza Hut

Out of all the existing Pizza chains such as Dominos, Smokin Joes, Papa

Johns Pizza Corner, U.S. Pizza, Pizza Hut has a dominating market share of 48% of the

total market share. However, this forced competitors to look for new methods of

increasing their customer base. They all try to come up with some newer, bigger, better

pizza for a low price. But Pizza Hut has always had the first mover advantage. Their

marketing strategy in the past has always been to be the first. One of their main

strategies, that they still follow today is the diversification of the products they offer.

The market has become greatly competitive and the customer has become

more discerning and adventurous. This however has not affected Pizza Huts comfortable

reign over the Indian pizza industry and the ever increasing number of loyal customers

who have made it possible for Pizza Hut to aggressively extend its presence.

Pizza Hut is always adding something new to their menu, trying to reach

new markets. For example, in 1992 the famous buffet was launched in Pizza Hut

restaurants worldwide. They were trying to offer many different food items for

customers who did not necessarily want pizza. Another strategy they used in the past and

are still using is the diversification of their pizzas. Pizza Hut is always trying to make a

pizza into something slightly different so that customers will think it is a whole new

product, e.g. in 1983 Pizza Hut introduced Pan Pizza, which had a guarantee of beingready to eat in 5 minutes when dining at Pizza Hut restaurants. In 1993, they introduced

the Big Foot which was two square feet of pizza cut into 21 slices. In 1995, they

introduced Stuffed Crust Pizza, where the crust would be filled with cheese. Currently,

they are marketing The Big New Yorker, trying to bring the famous New York style

pizza to the whole country using is the diversification of their pizzas. Pizza Hut is always

Pricing of Pizza Hut

In the past, Pizza Hut has successfully used the high/low pricing strategy

when setting the retail price of its products. The high/low retail pricing strategy allows

Pizza Hut to charge a price that is above the competition, but also promote frequent sales

to lower the price below them. The high/low pricing strategy has several advantages.

First, this pricing strategy will help segment the market. Different groups of customers

are willing to pay different prices for the same product. The high/low pricing strategy

will also create excitement. Customers will be able to try something new when they

purchase.

Finally, this strategy will emphasize product and service quality. Pizza

Hut sets a high initial price for the products to send a signal to customers that its products

are quality and the service is excellent.

As there are no such competitors of Pizza Hut which could compete with

the quality of Pizza products at Pizza Hut, therefore, the pricing strategy adopted by Pizza

Hut is market skimming. Pizza Hut has adopted this pricing strategy as they w3ant to

hold maximum share of the market by maximum profit6. This is a golden era for Pizza

Hut, as there are no competitors and hence, Pizza Hut is free to charge any price they

want.

They are charging higher prices due to the uniqueness of the product.

They satisfy the target market as the food quality is worth the price paid. The pricing

strategy is not just to get the worth of quality but also to gain maximum profits before

any competitor enters because then Pizza Hut will have to change its pricing strategy.

Although the prices would be lowered with the new entrants in the market

but not to a greater extent as the quality food products are not home produced. They are

imported from different countries keeping in view the best quality.

First, this pricing strategy will help segment the market. Different groups

of customers are willing to pay different prices for the same product. The high/low

pricing strategy will also create excitement.

Introduction of Dominos Pizza

The individual domino pieces of a set usually called dominoes or tiles.

Dominoes are small, flat rectangular game pieces. Many different materials over thecenturies have been used to make dominoes including plastic, wood, bone, ivory etc. A

domino may be of any size, but an ordinary domino is about one inch wide and two inch

long like a playing card a domino has a face and a back. The back of each tile is either

blank decorated with a design. Domino sets can be found in almost any colour

combination are white dominoes with black pips. Dominoes with the same number of

pips on each half of the face are known as doubles. A single domino also referred to as a

combination domino has a different number of pips on each half of the face.

Brand attitude

Use of technology

Online sales accounted for over 70 percent of its total sales in 2008. Dominos planned to

further exploit the increasing potential of the online medium as one of the promotional

and distributional channels in the downturn.

Brand purchase intention

What makes dominos pizza better than its competitors

Developing effective communication

Target to age group/class

Dominos target audience is a consumer who belongs to age group of 14

to 35 years from the Economic Class a or B and preferably one who has been exposed to

the western culture as well as the western style of eating. They are people who are

upwardly mobile and dont mind to pay for convenience. In this category teenagers are


14/65

14

the most affected by western culture and its eating habits. The age group has been

restricted to the range of 14 to 35 years as this age group accounts for about 70% of the

total class volume of pizzas in India.

As far as the socio Economic class is concerned, since Dominos pizzas

are priced from about Rs.80 onwards. However, Dominos have now come out with

pizzas ranging from Rs.39 onwards to target the ever-increasing middle class consumers.

Dominos has also segmented the market geographically by deciding to

initially cater to only metropolitan cities and urban areas. They have left out the rural

areas due to the low level of awareness regarding western dishes as well as typical Indian

patter of eating.

30 min campaign

This is a campaign in which Dominos offers its customers free Pizzas if

they are not delivered in 30 minutes from the time of order.

They have a store in a radius of 3 kms in major metropolitan cities.

Anything which is far away from 3 kms doesnt fall in this category.

Dominos latest special offer promises a hot and piping pizza delivered on

door under 30 minutes, or its free. But minutes is a very short time for a typical Dominos

Pizza local delivery, but its the latest special offer from Dominos in an effort to outdo

the competition. Still, there are some cities where it must be really tough to make a

Dominos Pizza local delivery, the cities where traffic congestion is a natural way of life.

Retail Environment of Dominos Pizza

Chinese (Paneer) is ubiquitous in Indias northern cuisine. Tomatoes and

all kinds of sauces are prevalent everywhere. Combine these ingredients intone goooey,

oily, tasty dish that you can eat with your hands as Indians traditionally do and you

have a hit.

It is estimated that 80% of Indians are vegetarians, so Pizza suits that

Indian cultural aspect too. Both chains are scrupulous about keeping veg from non-

veg in their kitchens and invite people in to see the separate prep areas. There are even

pizza options for Indias 5.2 million jains, followers of a religion that prohibits eating

onio0ns or garlic. And stores in heavily Muslim areas dont offer pepperoni.

Mix in another aspect of Indian culture, and you begin to see why both

chains are excited about their growth prospects. Indians are great socializers, says Pizza

Huts Allen. That plays right into what Pizza Hut stands for as a brand. Indeed the

chaos at Pizza Hut is a deliberate marketing strategy. We call it customer mania, says

Jain. All the crew members do a dance during peak hours every day. It is a very local

thing. It is kind of breaks the ice in what otherwise can be a standoffish atmosp0here.

Customers just love it.

That is certainly true for Praveren JayaRam, 32 who occasionally eats ata Pizza Hut in Bangalore on Sunday evenings with his wife and 4 year old son. It is

friendly here, he says over a $6.25 four-course meal for two that includes a chicken

tikka pan pizza, garlic bread, tomato soup and mango ice cream. Once or twice a month

eating here is okay, he says, acknowledging that local dining options are much cheaper.

But being able to afford a night out at Pizza Hut is a mark of success in increasingly

affluent India.

For its marketing strategy, Dominos has received a practice abandoned in

the U.S. in 1993: the 30-minutes orfree delivery guarantee. I have a Pizza Hut

across the road, so I have to do it in terms of brand visibility, says Alok Pandey,

Dominos regional manager for southern India. But, he admits, traffic, monsoon rains and

new neighbourhoods spreading out like tendrils make meeting the delivery cutoff a

challenge.

Pricing Of Dominos Pizza

Indians are value-sensitive, not price-sensitive. The price was attributed to

the high quality of ingredients used. For instance, Dominos sourced its Peproni and

Jalpeno needs from Australia and Spain respectively. However, with competition

increasing from Pizza Hut, Dominos introduced price cuts, discounts and freebies to

attract the customers. In 1998, Dominos introduced the Pizza Mania scheme where it

offered a large pizza for Rs.129/-. The demand was overwhelming and the company sold

close to 5000 pizzas in the first week of its launch.

During late 1998, both Dominos and Pizza Hut were trying to lure the

customers with discount coupons by issuing such coupons through several schemes.

However, both Dominos and Pizza Hut were concentrating more on data base marketing

and below the line activities and special offers.

In India Dominos is trying to attract the middle class and lower middle

class people who are interested to spend their money on pizza but in low price. Those

people are eager to go for a outing in any festival and as a cheap family restaurant

Dominos would be most preferable. They do not need high class ambiences or

amusement in the shop so the establishment cost is low for the dealers and the price of

pizza is very reasonable for the customer. Dominos do not have any fixed customerthough they are one of the main competitors of the Pizza Hut.

The Dominos Pizza franchise constantly keeps on inventing way through

which it can make a greater impact on the fast food market. That is how the fast food

franchise came up with Fun Meal for Four offer. Through this method, the pizza

franchise is able to produce more variety in the food delivered to its customers at their

door steps. Through its Fun Meal for 4 pack the Dominos Pizza India offers four pizzas

at the rate of Rs. 180. This means charge of one pizza will be just Rs. 45. This has helped

the speciality food franchise to enhance the strength of its customer base. Mainly offers

are more attractive for the Dominos, mainly student and middle class people are the

main customer and they targeted that customer.

Positioning

Points of difference

The major point of difference between pizza hut and dominos is that pizza

hut concentrates on in-restaurant dining. The ambience and dcor of all pizza hut outlets

are good and the outlets are spacious. When customers think of party and decide to have

pizza, pizza hut only comes into their mind. Pizza hut also customized birthday party

invites with different themes for the customers to choose and use it as invitations.

Dominos aim at fast home delivery of pizza. Whenever customers want to have pizza at

home, they think of calling deminos and ordering for it because they are experts in home

delivery of pizza. We earn 60% of our revenue from home delivery of pizzas and 40%

from the restaurant sales, says Mr. Navamani, manager of domino, coimbatore v.o.c.

Park outlet. In case of pizza hut, the major revenue is from restaurant sales.

Points of parity

Category points of paritythe main food item that is sold in pizza hut and

dominos is pizza. As we all know, Pizza comes under the fast food category of foods,

both the companies must be good in speed of making and service. Irrespective of the

cost, both pizza hut and dominos has to deliver or serve pizza in less time as compared to

other main course food items served in other restaurants.

Competitive points of parity

Competitive points of parity in case of pizza hut is that, even though pizza

hut is costlier than dominos, they have their own customers, who do not bother about

spending, but look for quality and personalized service. When we visit Pizza hut, they

have restaurant hostess who will assign us tables and introduce the steward who will be

taking care of us. This is generally a procedure that is followed in five star category

hotels and pizza hut is also following it to emphasize on service quality. In case of

dominos, they are not costly as pizza hut and do not offer great ambience to customers,

but offer good pizzas at nominal price. They concentrate on turnover of covers and cater

to customers who dont have time to spend on food and just stop over for refreshment.

Moreover, dominos mainly looks into home delivery of pizzas and are experts in it.

Product differentiation

Dominos pizza India has maintained its position in the market with its

constant product innovation and maintenance of stringent service standards. More

importantly, it has established a reputation for being a home delivery specialist capable of

delivering its pizzas within 30 minutes to its community of loyal customers from its

entire chain of stores around the country. As the name suggests the pizza delivery

experts customers can order their pizzas by calling their hotline. Dominos believes

have been very well accepted by the Indian market. Also they had their promotional

campaign hungry kya? which means call up dominos if one is hungry and have the food

in 30 minutes.

Domino's Pizza Features

Dominos differentiates itself with its competitors with respect to their

wide range of offerings (menu items) one can find besides pizzas, range of pastas

appetizers etc. There are quite a lot number of menu items to choose. The chicken

wings item has specially struck a chord with a lot of consumers as such a kind of item is

not available in any other pizza outlets. This item is also perceived to be the tastiest of

the lot. Indecently, chicken wings is a side dish.

Some of the menu items are

Pizzas Pasta & Salads Appetizers Desserts Beverages

by selecting the bread and loading it with the toppings which one can select. This creates

variety in the customers mind and thus one can enjoy whatever pizza hut can offer.


26/65

26

The most unique feature is that there is single slice pizza scheme where

one can select any vegetarian/non-vegetarian pizza at a lower cost. This is a unique way

of offering as there are many consumers who would not afford a regular size pizza and

hence they can have a slice of it.

Conformance quality:

products produced are identical and meet the promised specifications.

the dining standards. All orders placed in restaurant is served within 15-20 minutes and

the take away orders (ordered on phone) is delivered within 30 minutes. Care also has

been taken by the company to pack the pizzas in special covers so that it remains hot till

Marketing Strategies

Overall both the companies achieve what they want to as for Dominos

they have achieved in positioning themselves as the fastest serving pizza outlet and

quenching the hunger.

Pizza Hut has come to become synonymous with the best pizzas under one

roof. They have positioned themselves for their unique dining experience.

Thus from the market feedback, it can be seen that even customers feel the

same what the company wants them to.

Strategic Formulation

Overall Cost Leadership Differentiation and Focus

This is achieved very effectively by Dominos as they do not intend to lose

their focus from delivering pizzas at home.

Dominos Brand thus relates mainly to service and delivery neither they promotetheir in dining experience nor they spend revenue for it.

Dominos vision is focused on Exceptional people on a mission to be the bestpizza delivery company in the world.

Thus Dominos are able to provide good pizzas at relatively lower rate as

they dont spend much for the restaurant.

Pizza Huts Premium Price

Pizza Hut is committed for providing uncompromising product quality,

offering customers the highest value for money and giving service that is warm, friendly

and personal.

They stress heavily on the dining experience and the ambience. Thus at each point company charges a premium.

Thus Pizzas from Pizza Hut costs a premium hence their customers also

changes to high income groups.

Creation, Communication and Capturing Value

Dominos Pizza

Dominos Pizza constantly strives to develop products that suit the tastes

of its consumers and hence delighting them. Dominos believes strongly in the strategy of


29/65

29

Think Global and act local. Thus, time and again Dominos Pizza has been innovating

with delicious new products such as crusts, toppings and flavours suitable to the taste

buds of Indian consumers. Further, providing value for money at affordable products to

the consumers has been Dominos motto. Initiatives such as Fun Meal and Pizza Mania

have been extremely popular with consumers.

The Brand Positioning of Khushiyon Ki Home Delivery (Happiness Home

Delivered) is the emotional benefit Dominos offer to consumers.

Delicacies that do not rip wallets have always got the crowd coming back

to the Dominos although its ambience is not up to that of its competitors. They have the

maximum offers with respect to the discounts they offer throughout the year. Thus the

customer has the maximum incentive to come back to Dominos.

Hungry Kya?, promotion where hunger gets quelled in less than 30

minutes was a great value proposition. All other activities, be it new variants, great

service, timely deliveries or more for the same price the effort of Dominos has always

been directed towards making its customers happy, creating communicating and

delivering value.

Pizza Hut

Workforce of Pizza Hut is chosen with the motto Together we grow

with primary concern being quality of service, be it in terms of delivery of quality of

pizzas.

A critical factor in Pizza Huts success has been a menu that has

constantly evolved and expanded to cater to the changing needs and specific preferences

of customers in different parts of the world. In having understood the pulse of the

customers in India, Pizza Hut has clearly established itself as a brand with an Indian

heart. Besides offering an extensive range of vegetarian pizzas, it was the first pizza

chain to open a 100% vegetarian restaurant in India in Surat and later in Ahmedabad and

Chowpatty, where it offers a Jain menu sans all root based ingredients. Moreover, Pizza

Hut is not just a hangout zone for youngsters. It organizes birthday bashes, kitty parties

and corporate lunches.


30/65

30

They also have a variety of combinations of menu items which a customer

can choose so that both the customer and the company can have a win win situation.

The company can have the maximum of the consumer surplus at the same time the

consumer might feel that this was the best offer.

From the menu card one can see the family size variants and the different

pizza combinations in the same one pizza are all the different ways of pricing. The

company attains the maximum profit in the meat items, so they give the selection of

pizzas slices of different varieties and they are clubbed together to form a single pizza.

Once the customer dines / orders @ home, normally discount coupons are

given to the customer so that there is an incentive for the customer to order from pizza

hut. Thus customers are forced to maintain loyalty towards pizza hut.

Sustaining, building relationships and Exploiting Changing Conditions

Over the years Pizza Hut has also developed and successfully introduced a

range of products especially suited to the Indian Palate. These products like Chicken

Tikka, Spicy Korma, picy Paneer and the Masala and tandoori Pizzas have been a

tremendous success. What has also given Pizza Hut a competitive edge is that in addition

to an extensive range of internationally renowned pizzas like The Italian, the proprietary

Pan Pizza and stuff crust in India, the menu offers the option of a complete meal. It

includes appetizers, a Salad Barwhere the customers can make their own fresh salads, a

range of soups, pastas and desserts etc.

Pizza Hut also has a community called as VIP Members joining this

club is at no extra cost one can avail greater offers.

Meanwhile Dominos are not behind Pizza Hut in introducing local

delicacies they have different menu in different cities in India.

Dominos believes strongly in the strategy of Think global and act local.

Thus, time and again Dominos Pizzaa has been innovating with delicious new products

such as crusts, toppings and flavours suitable to the taste buds of India consumers.

Further, providing value for money at affordable products to the consumers has been

Dominos motto. Also size of the pizzas are relatively large as compared to that of Pizza

Hut.


31/65

31

The discount offers at Dominos are the main incentive to build long term

relationship. Dominos also courier discount coupons at consumers home. This serve as

an incentive for the customers to visit Dominos time and again.

Rating of the Marketing Strategy

Both the companies are good in achieving their goal and are equally good inachieving what they intend to.

Tastes of pizzas of both the companies are good equally in their own sense. Marketing strategy of Pizza Hut is better that Dominos because they offer

customers a holistic approach.

Pizza Hut markets their product not only as a food but as an experience which isworth enjoying. People tend to remember experiences more than the food.

Thus, overall Pizza Huts marketing strategy has and edge over Dominos.
