Domino’s Pizza has celebrated the opening of its 18,000th store located in La Junta, Colorado. The brand’s footprint spans over 90 total markets.

“This is a remarkable milestone for Domino’s, and I am thrilled it is happening in La Junta,” said Ritch Allison, Domino’s CEO. “We’ve grown our total global store count by more than 5,100 stores in the past five years, and we couldn’t be more ecstatic to commemorate the brand’s 18,000th store in the world, right here in Colorado.”

To commemorate the opening, Domino’s Pizza held a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by Ritch Allison, as well as Frank Garrido, Domino’s executive VP of U.S. operations and support; Brian Bailey, La Junta Domino’s franchise owner; and other key company executives.

As part of the ribbon-cutting ceremony, franchise owner Brian Bailey presented an $18,000 donation to La Junta Associated Charities, in honor of the store milestone.

“I’m honored to have the La Junta store be a part of this milestone and I’m thrilled that we are able to give back to an organization that does such tremendous work in the local community,” said Bailey. “La Junta Associated Charities provide food and emergency relief to those in need and I’m so grateful our Domino’s team can help support their mission.”
