Neat idea...

The transport of a freshly-baked pizza can be fraught with peril for delivery drivers. One unexpected bump or pothole will easily spill, splatter or ruin a pie.


To prevent pizza jostling-related crises, fast-food giant Domino’s Pizza took matters into its own hands and developed a plan to repair deteriorating roads across the United States.


Through the “Paving for Pizza” initiative, Domino’s is asking customers to nominate cities for a paving grant at pavingforpizza.com. If a town is selected, all participating customers are notified, and the city receives funds to patch potholes directly affecting Domino’s customers. The company will be accepting nominations through the end of the year.


“Have you ever hit a pothole and instantly cringed? We know that feeling is heightened when you’re bringing home a carry out order from your local Domino’s store.” Russell Weiner, president of Domino’s Pizza, said in a statement. “We don’t want to lose any great-tasting pizza to a pothole, ruining a wonderful meal.”



(I've never had dominos in my life, put it on the to-do list, my favorite is Little Caesars which is one of the largest chains in Canada ironically they are an American company)

In my local pizzeria pizza wasn't that good.

But this marketing is impressive.

I'd commit serious crimes for an authentic stuffed Chicago pizza at this moment.

Well, is actually quite interesting, I do like the copy tough, I related to the "Have you ever hit a pothole and instantly cringed ?" And it seems like an interesting way to draw some attention to the brand.

On the other hand, if the actually selected a town, how much of the potholes can they "cover", and above all, is that something their customer wants them to do? Is that really a problem when delivering?

Time will tell if it works.
