From a single basement oven ... in the Far North, Dodo Pizza has turned into one of Europe’s fastest-growing restaurant chains, leapfrogging Papa John’s, Domino’s and Pizza Hut in his home market in just eight years.
— growing sales despite market challenges and COVID-19
— each new store becomes profitable in 2 months of operation
— 3-5 years objective to launch up to 30 more stores
What interested us about Dodo was that the brand came from a market where supply chain and other matters were not so easy historically. And on top of that, it's a great brand, technology, product, lovely people, and the CEO himself coming to Nigeria. It was very personal

Fresh brand with an African vibe
The decoration from outside all the way in was superb, the arrangement of interior decorations was topnotch it shows that they actually know what they are doing and they are ready to give Domino's pizza a run for their money
— Freedom to experiment and add new recipes based on local preferences
— Dodo HQ accumulates local expertise in one place and franchisees can see all 255 recipes of other franchisees
— In-depth product analytics: from juiciness of pepperoni to overall satisfaction with taste
We were able to add Nigerian elements to the menu very quickly. That's how the Suya Signature Line, Shawarma pizza, and Dodo pizza with plantain appeared (popularly known as "dodo" in Nigeria)
What if you want to scale but you can’t find the right premises for another store? Luckily, Dodo has a portfolio of formats that can be easily adapted to local markets.
From family-friendly pizza shop to a container unit

We talked about the container with Dodo’s CFO Kirill Vyrypaev. I think he and others weren’t quite sure. But the HQ team created for us a new design in shipping container. That's a willingness to think from the franchisees' side. Of course, we can go all alone, but what strikes us is the very strong personal support for the franchisee without questions
