Jubilant Foodworks Ltd is the operator of Domino’s Pizza and Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants in India, swung to a consolidated net profit of Rs 69.06 crore in the first quarter of the fiscal year (Q1FY22), from a year-ago loss.

The company, which also operates Hong’s Kitchen and Ekdum! Chain of restaurants recorded a net loss of Rs 74.47 crore in the year-ago quarter. Consolidated revenue from operations more than doubled to Rs 893.18 crore in the three months ended 30 June from Rs 388.41 crore a year earlier. This was helped by growth in Domino’s delivery channel, which offset the impact of covid-related curbs on dining-in and takeaway channels during the quarter. Jubilant Foodworks plans to add 150-175 outlets of Domino’s Pizza this fiscal to tap the market demand.

“Domino’s will continue to power ahead, and we see a clear potential of 3,000 stores in India, in the medium-to-long term for the brand,” Pratik Pota, chief executive officer and whole-time director, Jubilant Foodworks said, during a post-earnings call with analysts. The company had announced shutting down more than 100 Domino’s Pizza outlets in the September quarter last year.
