Pizza Combines Two of America, Trump's Favorite Foods For years, the debate over the favorite American food has raged: pizza or cheeseburgers? Following a victory by Magna Corp. on "The Apprentice," Domino's Pizza , the recognized world leader in pizza delivery, solves this historic dilemma with its introduction of the new American Classic Cheeseburger Pizza. "While 'The Apprentice' candidates came up with some interesting new pizza ideas, the real winning idea is the pizza that Domino's is launching," said Donald Trump. "It takes my two favorite foods -- pizza and cheeseburgers -- and blends them together. I've tried this product and it's fabulous." This new pizza sensation starts with a hand-tossed crust and features juicy beef and a combination of three flavorful cheeses -- American, provolone and cheddar. A top layer of onions, bacon and tomatoes creates a truly classic cheeseburger taste. Creating new pizza taste sensations is at the top of many people's minds right now. On NBC's "The Apprentice," millions of viewers watched as both teams were tasked to come up with a new pizza for Domino's.
Domino's executed a marketing first on the show by running two commercials featuring Trump -- one in support of Domino's 555 Deal, and one introducing Domino's newest taste sensation, The American Classic Cheeseburger Pizza. In the spot airing at the start of the show, Trump answers the door to find a Domino's delivery driver delivering his 555 Deal: Three Medium Pizzas for just $5 each. Trump negotiates with the Domino's driver -- and it quickly become apparent that this deal is so incredible, even the author of "The Art of The Deal" wants to take credit for it! In the second spot, Domino's is delivering the new American Classic Cheeseburger Pizza to Trump at his office. In this spot Trump likes the product so much that he also tries to take credit for this great idea from Domino's. The American Classic Cheeseburger Pizza is available in Domino's stores nationwide. Consumers can buy a medium Cheeseburger Pizza for $9.99 and get any second medium pizza for just $5.00 more. Founded in 1960, Domino's Pizza is the recognized world leader in pizza delivery. Domino's is listed on the NYSE under the symbol "DPZ." Through its primarily franchised system, Domino's operates a network of 7,757 franchised and Company-owned stores in the United States and more than 50 countries. The Domino's Pizza(R) brand, named a Megabrand by Advertising Age magazine, had global retail sales of more than $4.6 billion in 2004, comprised of nearly $3.2 billion domestically and more than $1.4 billion internationally. Domino's Pizza was named "Chain of the Year" by Pizza Today magazine, the leading publication of the pizza industry and is the "Official Pizza of NASCAR."
