DPC Dash – Domino's Pizza China Honored with Seven-Star Award for Outstanding Contributions to Food Safety & Public Health for Fourth Consecutive Year

DPC Dash – Domino's Pizza China ("DPC Dash" or the "Company") (1405.HK), the exclusive master franchisee of Domino's Pizza in mainland China, Hong Kong SAR, and Macau SAR, has once again been recognized with the prestigious 2024 "Annual Seven-Star Award for Outstanding Contributions in Food Safety & Public Health" (the Seven-Star Awards). This marks the fourth consecutive year that DPC Dash has received this honor, underscoring its steadfast dedication to food safety, quality, and exceptional service.

The Seven-Star Awards are among the most influential accolades in the Chinese food industry. In a year marked by global supply chain disruptions and evolving consumer expectations, the 2024 awards adopted the theme, "Quality Shapes the Future, Creating Sustainable Food Trends Together." This theme highlights the importance of rigorous food safety and health standards while advocating for sustainability through innovation, optimized management, and operational excellence. Since its inception in 2011, the Seven-Star Awards have evolved from a focus on food safety to encompassing health innovation and, more recently, green and sustainable development. This year, 41 leading companies from food manufacturing, retail, and catering sectors were recognized for their contributions.

Commitment to Food Safety and Quality

DPC Dash has implemented a robust farm-to-table supply chain management system tailored to the China market, ensuring consistent delivery of high-quality, delicious food to consumers. Its pizza dough, for instance, is prepared and refrigerated in centralized kitchens, then transported via specialized logistics to restaurant cold storage. On-site, employees hand-toss the dough, add premium ingredients, and bake the pizzas at high temperatures to serve fresh, flavorful meals. These processes adhere strictly to all relevant laws, regulations, and operational standards.

The Company has also developed comprehensive food safety training programs, offered both online and offline, to ensure all staff are well-versed in maintaining high standards. Additionally, third-party companies are engaged to conduct regular food safety evaluations of DPC Dash's operations.

Industry Leadership and Collaboration

DPC Dash actively collaborates with industry associations and government bodies to advance food safety standards across the catering industry. At the recent Food Nutrition and Catering Conference in Beijing, the Company, as the inaugural chair of the newly established Food Nutrition and Catering Branch of the China Food and Drug Enterprises Quality and Safety Promotion Association (FDSA), shared its farm-to-table management philosophy. By fostering knowledge exchange on best practices, DPC Dash continues to drive the sustainable development of the industry.

CEO's Perspective on Excellence

Aileen Wang, Chief Executive Officer of DPC Dash, highlighted the Company's unwavering focus on food safety:
"As a market leader in the catering industry, food safety, quality, and service remain our top priorities. DPC Dash is committed to innovation, excellence, and customer satisfaction. By integrating food nutrition into our operations, we aim to provide consumers with a richer, healthier dining experience that offers greater choice."
