Second time lucky for Domino's Pizza?

Domino's Pizza has returned to the Thai market by opening a store in Bangkok as part of its plan to boost Asia-Pacific sales.

‘Thailand is among our priority markets for expansion. It is the right time to open again here,’ says Mr Pizziol. This is Domino Pizza’s second foray into the Thai pizza market after it left in the wake of the 1997 financial crisis. It believes it will benefit from the country’s rising number of middleincome consumers and their willingness to try new tastes.

The re-entry of the world's leading pizza delivery firm will likely heat up Thailand's pizza market, worth an estimated 8 billion baht annually.

@Disc 1,2 - Yup pizza are known for their high sodium content. I hope Dominoes expand their delivery route soon. I just called yesterday for them to delivery to Chidlom, they said it takes 5 minutes...too far..

phaethon,

It's no secret that they are high in sodium, two slices contain the required amount of salt for an entire day.

I've tried both Bangkok's largest Pizza delivery companies fare - once each - and been left with a raging thirst and ferocious post-prandial drowsiness. Neither company responded to my enquiries about ingredients. I wonder if Domino's will be more open about how much salt/MSG they put in their 'pizza'?
