Rising prices take bite out of Domino’s profits but Greggs savours rise in sales of cheaper treats

The Independent  

Soaring prices and squeezed households budgets have led to a slump in half-year profits at Domino’s Pizza – but a jump in sales for value bakery chain Greggs. “But the group’s near-term prospects still look rather unappetising given the extremely unsavoury cost outlook.” Greggs’ financial results coincide with the company announcing the appointment of Matthew Davies as its incoming chairman. Domino’s expects some relief from increased prices for its franchisees but this was on a “lagged basis”, meaning that the full benefit will not be felt until the final six months of the year. Domino’s said it is boosting marketing spend “significantly” to attract more customers, having seen like-for-like sales excluding so-called split territories drop 6.4 per cent due to the increase in the VAT rate.
