While some of the company's stores require delivery driver applicants to use their own vehicle, some do provide a car. There are many people who work in Domino's stores or potential workers who have driver's licenses, and Weiner said, "all they need is a car… it's a great way for us to bring in incremental labor at a time when that market is tight." "If you think about today, what we do is hire folks with cars, but that's getting really competitive with what's going on." "It just allows us to tap into a different driver pool," Weiner said. Rolling out the new fleet of GM EVs also is expected to help the company with its driver recruitment efforts. In 2014, the company introduced the DXP delivery vehicle, a custom-build Chevrolet Spark that featured a built-in warming oven and special compartments to hold items like sodas. The adoption of this fleet of EVs is not the first time Domino's has looked to optimize how pizza is delivered. 11, with 402 of those being corporate locations. Domino's had 6,643 stores across the U.S. in November, with the additional 700 arriving over the coming months. The new vehicles, which have a 259-mile range, will be custom-branded with Domino's logos.Īn initial 100 vehicles have been arriving at select franchise and corporate stores across the U.S. The Chevy Bolt EV will provide the company with zero tailpipe emissions and lower average maintenance costs than nonelectric vehicles, as well as a reduction in fueling costs, according to Domino's. "This is a way we can get better better service for our customers and better for the environment." "Domino's was founded in 1960 as a delivery company, and we go to bed every night and wake up every morning saying 'how can we get better?'" Weiner told CNBC's Jim Cramer on "Mad Money" last week.
