DOMINO’S LAUNCHES OFFICIAL BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT PIZZA

T o celebrate the third year of its Britain’s Got Talent sponsorship,
pizza delivery expert, Domino’s Pizza, has launched a new pizza
created especially for this year’s series of the top ITV show.

Mexican Sizzler

The official Britain’s Got Talent pizza – the Mexican Sizzler – was
designed by 21 year old Emma Johnston from Glasgow as part of a
national competition Domino’s ran last year. Domino’s received 38,000
entries from budding pizza designers and the top three toppings were
put to the public vote.

Almost 30,000 votes were cast and Emma was crowned the winner for her
spicy combination of chicken fajita slices, crunchy tortillas, green
peppers, red peppers and jalapenos on Domino’s classic fresh dough
base with vine-ripened tomato sauce and 100% mozzarella. Emma scooped
£10,000 for her top topping and the Mexican Sizzler goes on sale today
[April 19, 2010], as the official pizza for this year’s Britain’s Got
Talent.

Robin Auld, sales and marketing director of Domino’s Pizza, said: “We
were staggered by the country’s talent for designing pizza in our
competition. Emma’s Mexican Sizzler really caught the eye (and
stomach!) of the nation and we’re delighted to launch it on our menu
in time for the new series. What better way to watch than with an
official Britain’s Got Talent pizza?”

The Mexican Sizzler – the official Britain’s Got Talent pizza – is on
sale in Domino’s stores across the country, for a limited period. To
grab a slice of the action, call Domino’s national hotline 087
12121212, order online at www.dominos.co.uk or visit your local store.

Dominos Pizza

A brand new Domino’s Pizza outlet could be set for Pontyclun, Llantrisant, providing it gets the green light from Rhondda Cynon Taf Council.

The introduction of the new Domino’s Pizza store would bring a huge boost to the Pontyclun area along with creation of 30 jobs for local people.

The council will consider the proposal on March 11^th. However Domino’s are positive that the potential to create so many jobs for local workers will weigh heavily in their favour.

Should permission be granted for the franchise, two store managers jobs would be created, long with 28 other positions ranging from delivery driver, customer service operators, and trainee pizza makers. Domino’s has a fantastic track record for offering opportunities to ambitious individuals with many employees working their way up the ranks and gaining a managerial position within two years.

South Wales based businessman, Tej Randeva, is the proposed franchisee for the new venture. Tej has considerable experience in the business arena and currently runs a limousine brokerage company, Limo Broker, and a coach hire brokerage company, Coach Broker, from his base in Cardiff Bay. The 29-year-old also picked up the award for Fastest Growing Business in 2003 for his brand of insurance brokers in South Wales.

A spokesperson for Domino’s Pizza said they are very excited about the new venture and hope to bring locals jobs, and delicious pizza, to the Pontyclun area in the very near future.

Jennifer Lopez eating pizza

Latino diva Jennifer Lopez is famed the world over for her figure, but it seems the singer and actress isn’t prepared to sacrifice her favourite foods to achieve her slim-line look. Jennifer was snapped recently during a break from a photo shoot in the US tucking into a slice of her first choice snack, pizza.

The 40-year-old, who only gave birth to twins Max and Emme in February, looked every inch the star as she showed off her famous curves in a figure-hugging black dress. Although the Wedding Planner actress enjoyed a slice or two of pizza during a break in shooting, the health conscious star did opt for a low-calorie topping of mixed peppers with only a smattering of cheese on her pizza.

Reports claim that Jennifer worked hard to regain her pre-baby figure and embarked on a rigorous triathlon training schedule to help shift the extra pounds. Triathlon is a notoriously tough exercise regime and consists of swimming, cycling and running exercises all performed in immediate succession.

It is refreshing to see a celebrity enjoying her food for a change and Jennifer Lopez should be applauded for her sensible attitude towards eating. Even the rich and famous like to treat themselves to a little bit of what they fancy now and again proving something we’ve known for a long time; pizza is never a sin.

Dominos have launched their Pizza progress tracker in the UK

As part of Domino’s Pizza’s promise to bring its customers the very best home food delivery service, the pizza giant has launched a brand new service in the UK which will take the angst out of waiting for your delivery to arrive. The new project was launched in the UK last week and aims to provide customers with a more convenient and hassle-free means by which to order home delivered pizza.

The new Pizza Tracker hit Domino’s outlets in the UK last week at the same time the company were celebrating 10 years of online pizza orders. During these 10 successful years Domino’s has been at the forefront of developments and improvements to the online ordering system.

With more and more people opting to place their order using Domino’s fast and efficient online service, last year the company recorded £55.9 million worth of sales from its internet based service alone, plus 27% of Domino’s total pizza sales comes from this source.

The Pizza Tracker has already been successfully integrated into the Domino’s Pizza experience in the US as the system was introduced there back in January 2008. Now UK customers can enjoy the exceptional new system too. The Pizza Tracker keeps customers informed on the progress of their order every step of the way. It allows you to keep track of your pizza so you’ll know exactly when your delivery is ready to leave the outlet, where the driver is and how far away from your address.

Here’s what Sales and Marketing Director at Domino’s, Robin Auld, had to say about the new scheme: “Yet again, we are leading the way for technophiles with the Pizza Tracker. Having had online ordering for some 10 years now, we need to offer something new and exciting for our web customers – and the Pizza Tracker is a the ultimate toy for web-based control freaks! At the click of a mouse you can see exactly how near to delivery your pizza is.

So if you like to have total control over everything in your life, including your pizza, then this is the system for you. To download the Pizza Tracker for free to your iPhone please visit the Domino’s website.

The comedy, which received a generally good reception when it appeared in cinemas earlier this year, is inspired by a real-life story of a British journalist accepting a job in a top fashion magazine in the USA. The film follows Pegg’s performance as lead man Sidney Young as he attempts to build his own glittering career in New York and charm the not inconsiderable beauty of Kirsten Dunst.

So, if you feel like a change this saturday, order yourself a pizza and switch to Sky Movies Premiere to be one of the first to watch Pegg’s film on the small screen.

Police are investigating the shooting of a pizza delivery man

Not many people would consider delivering pizza to be a particularly dangerous job. This was definately not the case for a delivery driver based in Greensboro in the heart of North Carolina, USA this week when he was shot during a robbery.

The driver had been delivering pizza to customers for Fox’s Pizza,  down Tillman Avenue in the city when he was stopped by a man stopped his motorbike and demanding the drivers’ cargo. When the driver, who has yet to be named, refused the robber shot him and stole the goods.

Local police have announced they have located a suspect in relation to the crime, but have yet to make any arrests.
