India is poised to become Domino’s Pizza’s largest market outside the US.

Indian partner, Jubilant FoodWorks, plans to take its outlet count to more than 800 over the next six months, overtaking the UK where Domino’s has 770 stores.

“When we reach the number of 800-plus stores is when we would be the largest market outside of the US,” said Jubilant FoodWorks CEO Ajay Kaul.

Domino’s, with 67 per cent share, leads the pizza market in India.

“In the last one year, Domino’s Pizza has aggressively strengthened its presence in tier II and tier III cities,” the company said in a press release. “The brand has constantly focused on winning a loyal customer base across India through its tasty pizza offerings, unmatched delivery promise and warm guest service approach.”
