13. Store Formats
Delivery Pizza Restaurant
Our mass market format is Delivery Pizza Restaurant with the menu centered around pizza.
The business model is delivery-oriented with a delivery time guarantee within the designated
zone. Our concept is similar to that of international chains such as Domino’s, Telepizza, Papa
John’s.
The success of the delivery model is evidenced by worldwide proliferation of companies that
specialise in pizza delivery. Around the delivery model, without undermining its efficiency,
Dodo Pizza has developed a dine-in format that strengthens the entire business through
diversification and extra revenues and helps to promote the brand. A Dodo Pizza store with
a dine-in area doesn’t have waiters and orders are served in disposable packaging. Great
emphasis is placed on ambiance, interior design and customer service. Items like coffee,
house-made milkshakes and uniquely marketed pizza slices are only available on the dine-in
menu. Customers are offered fresh-out-of-the-oven pizza slices while our information
system Dodo IS displays exactly how long each slice has been sitting on the counter. Dine-in
sales can account for 30-70% of sales depending on location and various other factors.
Development of dine-in
Several sub-formats have been built around the single production model so as to meet the
demands of different markets, locations with different traffic and renting costs. This approach
allows a degree of flexibility while maintaining consistency and uniformity. The main format is
based on delivery but sites with high traffic and costly rent are developed so as to generate
high dine-in sales. Low-traffic locations either have no dine-in area at all or have kids rooms
and larger tables for children's parties in order to attract family audiences.
Flexibility and uniformity
Dodo Pizza is developing 5 restaurant sub-formats around
the single production model

14. Product Management
• The Dodo Pizza menu caters to the mass consumer and focuses on
delivery. Its foundation is a selection of pizzas. Besides pizzas, the menu
includes snacks, ready-to-eat desserts, cold and hot beverages. Several
menu items were introduced specifically for dine-in customers:
milkshakes, coffee, pizza by slice. Depending on the pizzeria’s format,
pizza generates 60-70% of sales.
• The menu is continuously evolving. New products are introduced as we
explore new formats and new markets. The company operates an RD
lab for developing new products, testing equipment and new
technologies. Since launching in the US, Dodo Pizza has started
collaborating with leading American pizza technologists and dough
experts John Arena and Tom Lehman.
• By combining new technologies with our information system we
launched an innovative model of selling pizza slices. The information
system forecasts sales volumes and automatically initiates pizza
production. Fresh-out-of-the-oven pizza is offered by slice for up to 60
minutes. During the first 45 minutes slices are sold at regular price. Then
they are offered for 15 minutes at a substantial discount. If not sold after
60 minutes, slices are written off. The information system informs
customers of exactly when each slice was taken out of the oven. This
ensures transparency and higher appeal for the customer. This way, pizza
slices offered at Dodo Pizza are always fresh and write-offs are
minimised through accurate forecasting.
Pizza accounts for 60-70% of sales

15. Product Management
Dodo Pizza 2016
• Seasonal offers are a crucial element of Dodo Pizza product marketing
strategy. As part of this initiative we release a seasonal pizza once every
three months. Each seasonal release is accompanied by a separate
marketing campaign. Seasonal products help maintain brand awareness
and let customers try new flavours and combinations. Seasonal
products are created by the Product department. They are mandatory
for every pizzeria throughout the relevant region.
• The Product department initiates certain programs to meet specific
marketing objectives. An example of this is the launch of the “combo”,
a product category aimed specifically at value-conscious customers and
allowing them to choose among sets with 2 or more pizzas and a
beverage at a special price. Key suppliers also participate in many of our
marketing programs.
• System-wide supply volumes in Russia allow us to negotiate the best
prices and terms for our franchisees. Manufacturers produce and
package products specifically for us. For example, Mozzarella cheese is
manufactured and packaged in Russia specifically per our requirements.
Most ingredients used in Dodo Pizza kitchens are strictly controlled to
ensure consistency of taste and quality.
• Promo photos of Dodo Pizza menu items are created at our photo
studio using real products. We don’t use digitally enhanced
photographs.
16. Marketing
At the moment, national promotion of the brand is
conducted primarily through social media. More
sophisticated national marketing campaigns will commence in
2017.
National marketing
Local marketing is handled by franchisees with support of the
head office. Dodo Pizza educates franchisees about effective
local marketing techniques, customer acquisition and
retention.
• Franchisees have essential knowledge of local markets,
local culture and support of local communities. Combined
with global expertise of Dodo Pizza, they form a fail-proof
marketing strategy for individual stores.
• Local marketing targets and objectives are set by the
franchisee. The head office provides ready solutions as
per specific requirements of individual local marketing
projects.
• Real-life marketing experience accumulated by both the
franchisee and the corporate marketing department can
be used subsequently for development in similar markets.
Local marketing
Dodo Pizza’s marketing efforts can be broken down into
local marketing and national marketing. National marketing
is focused on promoting the brand and product and its
direction is governed by the corporate head office. Local
marketing is a set of activities aimed at attracting
customers in individual local pizzerias.
Dodo Pizza runs a system-wide customer loyalty program.
Customers are awarded 5% value of every purchase in bonus
points. They can then use the bonuses to pay for orders partially
or in full.
The system only requires association with a client’s phone
number - no need to carry extra plastic around in the wallet.
Alternatively, customers pay with bonuses through QR code that
is automatically generated in their account on the Dodo Pizza
website.
The loyalty program allows to very closely and scrupulously
study customer behaviour. Based on relevant data, we intend to
develop statistical models and a CRM system that will become an
integral part of Dodo IS.

17. • The headquarters are in Syktyvkar (Komi Republic, Russia). We have a
separate Dodo IS development office in Moscow and two more
development teams in Nizhniy Novgorod and Kolomna (Moscow region).
• Dodo Pizza grows at a rapid pace requiring flexible, continuously evolving
organizational structure.
• Each functional unit at Dodo Pizza is treated as a separate “enterprise”
inside the company with its own “product”, business metrics and targets.
Each unit sets goals that can be quantified and measured. The chief metric
reflects the current strategy. For example, in 2016 the main company
metric is the increase in year-over-year same-store orders in mature
stores.
• The entire head office takes part in the development of Dodo IS, the
company’s information system. The Dodo IS project teams are comprised
of managers from various departments and software developers. Dodo IS
helps corporate managers reach their business objectives.
• The company’s rapid growth attracts talented managers and professionals
from all over Russia and abroad. In 2016 the company launched “The
Managers’ School”, an extensive internal training program / internship to
prepare highly skilled corporate office managers.

18. Organizational structure
Head office
The entire complex of entities participating in the transnational Dodo Pizza network can be viewed
as a structure with three functional levels — corporate head office, master franchises and local
franchise chains. The corporate head office is responsible for business system development and the
Dodo Pizza brand in general. A master franchise is a company that has the rights for distribution of
the franchise (also known as sub-franchise) within a certain territory. Dodo Pizza master franchises
are corporate owned. Local franchise chains are companies that own and operate one or several
pizzerias. They are directly involved in restaurant operations, meaning they run the kitchens, order
supplies and sell pizza to end customers. They can be independent or owned by other companies,
including master franchises and the head office.

The company owns and operates two local chains:

Corporate owned units help accumulate essential

direction. Nevertheless, the primary focus is
franchising. In the future, the corporate owned chains
will be merged into one division.

delivery and dine-in. The
higher the delivery sales, the
lower the Cost of sales.
Because delivery orders
contain mostly pizzas, which
have higher margins. Yet,
pizzerias with dining rooms are
more profitable overall due to
additional sales.

23. • The process of opening a new store is systematised, which allows to work
simultaneously on multiple projects. Currently, we are able to handle over
100 ongoing development projects at once. The Startup department is
responsible for new unit development. Kitchen floor plans are produced
internally while restaurant interior design is provided by a long-term
contractor design studio.
• Each franchisee attends a 21-day training program and internship at the Dodo
Pizza Training Center in Syktyvkar.
• Over 50% of new pizzerias are opened by existing Dodo Pizza franchisees.
Their previous experience allows for higher efficiency in planning and
executing subsequent pizzeria launches. Best timing for opening a full-scale
restaurant has so far been 60 days, for a food court location - 32 days. Both
projects were managed by experienced franchisees.
• A list of verified reliable contractors allows to open quickly and smoothly.
Suppliers of essential kitchen equipment (ovens, coffee machines,
refrigerators) maintain stock specifically for our needs to further accelerate
development. We deal directly with manufacturers of equipment and our
franchisees are given bulk discounts.
• Every launch is preceded by a thorough examination of the entire pizzeria,
including its kitchen production, furniture and signage placement etc. This
examination, conducted by the Control department, ensures brand
consistency and compliance with quality standards.

Costs ≈85%
Controllable

Non-controllable
≈20%
• Costs are broken down into COGS, controllable and non-controllable
expenses.
• The main controllable expenses include staff wages, advertising, utilities
and repairs.
• Controllable expenses for a 3-4 year old pizzeria are around 32% of
sales. These are expenses that can be controlled through various
management initiatives.
• Non-controllable expenses are rent payments, call-center payments,
banking services and royalty payments. They normally amount to roughly
20% of sales.
• Sore management is always challenged to optimise controllable expenses.
The two key areas for optimisation are the minimisation of shrinkage and
optimisation of staff payments
• Dodo IS allows store managers to identify stages of production where
most losses occur and take action to eliminate them. It also helps to
manage inventory in the most efficient way minimising working capital
requirements
• Dodo IS has an interface for detailed shift scheduling. Before scheduling a
shift the store manager checks the integrated orders forecast. Based on
this, the manager can optimise employees’ schedules so that the pizzeria
isn’t understaffed or overstaffed at any time.

26. Schedule in Dodo IS
• With the help of Dodo IS the store manager optimises budgets and improves profitability.
• Staff payments. Optimised schedule - expenses reduced by 5-7%.
• An average shift at a store consists of 6 staff members: a shift manager, a counter, 2
pizzamakers and 2 delivery drivers. All employees come in at times indicated in the
schedule agreed in advance.
• We offer employees a flexible schedule. Each employee fills out an availability calendar in
the personal account interface indicating days and shifts when she or he can come in to
work.
• By analysing previous orders data Dodo IS forecasts how many pizzas and other items will
need to be prepared at any given hour during a shift.
• The system factors in variability of demand and employees’ availability and recommends an
optimised schedule. The “no orders - no staff” principle helps to avoid overstaffing.
• If necessary, the store manager makes final adjustments of the schedule manually.
• Losses. By minimising losses, a pizzeria’s expenses are reduced by 3-5%.
• A store maintains a constant supply of various stock items. So in order to efficiently
monitor and control stock levels, Dodo IS features an integrated inventory management
interface.
• Shift managers register incoming stock, write-offs and stock movements inside the pizzeria
in the system and optimise inventory based on the analysis of historical data

28. Dodo Information System
Dodo Pizza is in a sense an IT company that makes pizza. We develop our own web-
based software that manages operations of a single pizzeria as well as the entire
chain. This software, the information system Dodo IS, is the core of our franchise.
With the use of the Internet and IT, Dodo Pizza creates a highly efficient pizzeria
model. Dodo IS enables online control over operations and quality throughout the
restaurant chain in real time. What differentiates Dodo IS from systems used by
other chains? There are two main factors:
1. Combination of competencies. Dodo Pizza is simultaneously a pizzeria chain and
an IT company that since its inception in 2011 has been developing its own
software. This approach enables integration of software with business operations
to an extent unprecedented in the industry. Not only are traditional processes
optimised but also entirely new, more efficient production and administration
systems are developed. Software development is an interactive continuous
process that is fully integrated with other company projects.
2. The Internet. Dodo IS is a website. Even POS terminals at our pizzerias operate
through a browser. The Internet allows to unite all pizzerias, tablets in the
kitchens, delivery drivers’ phones, apps on customers’ smartphones, employees’
accounts, the website for placing orders and call-center into one system.
The Internet provides opportunities for innovation. The information system allows to
break new ground in automatisation. Production in a kitchen equipped with tablets or
other mobile devices becomes fully transparent. Meanwhile, the set-up is simple
because we only need a browser and Internet connection. The Internet also provides
flexibility and rapid system-wide implementation - improvements and updates are
affected instantaneously throughout the chain comprising thousands of pizzerias.

Dodo Pizza creates something similar to the “smart house” concept. Only it’s

beginning. The system aggregates large amounts of data. Its analysis has enormous
business potential.

Dodo Pizza 2016
30. How Dodo IS works. Case-study: Order preparation speed
Dodo Pizza not simply
automates conventional
business processes. Dodo
Pizza software developers
actually undergo regular
kitchen practice, manage
pizzerias and based on real
operations experience invent
new ways for pizzerias to be
more efficient.
The Tracking
kitchen tablet
Game-like kitchen motivation screen
Store manager’s interface –
comparing pizzerias’ speed
How do you make your kitchen team prepare pizza
as quickly as they change wheels at Formula 1 pit
stops?
• All Dodo Pizza kitchens are equipped with
tablets that communicate the necessary
information about orders, products and
tasks. Each work station has its own
interface. Not only do kitchen line
operators receive information through the
system but they also interact with it by
registering every stage of order fulfillment.
• Preparation times are registered in the system. But
how to motivate staff to work faster? Our
experience indicates that long term motivation is
ineffective for this particular problem. Instead,
Dodo Pizza kitchens use positive and negative
reinforcement in combination with “game”
motivation. If a product is prepared within the
required time the system plays a “cheering” sound,
if not - a “booing” sound. There are special
motivation screens in the kitchens. If preparation
took too long a red octopus appears on the
screen, if it was on time - a green one. All this
motivates the team to work faster.
• Store managers, regional division
managers and corporate office
managers can view and compare
average preparation speed at any
pizzeria online. Comparing their
results against those of other
units motivates store managers
to reach new targets.
Dodo Pizza 2016
31. How Dodo IS works. Case-study: Hiring and staffing
Dodo IS lowers staff turnover
and increases productivity by
optimising employees’ schedules.
Performance metrics at all
pizzerias are monitored online by
the corporate head office.
The hiring manager receives applications,
reviews them, invites prospects to be
interviewed and monitors performance - all in a
single interface in Dodo IS. Dodo IS allows to
conduct recruitment entirely in the system.
Average application response time is reported
as well as how many employees quit during the
first 2 weeks. The head office can easily spot
pizzerias that have turnover problems.
Applications
An employee enters her availability schedule
into the system. Based on this information, the
store manager will assign hours in shifts.
Employees can plan their work hours well in
advance. This feature proved to be a significant
factor in attracting new employees and
retaining the existing ones.
Dodo IS performs statistical analysis and
forecasts work loads and hourly order
quantities. It advises the manager on the optimal
schedule for maximum efficiency, when to
schedule more people and when - less.
Employees can check their confirmed work
schedules and positions. If for some reason they
can’t work on a given day, the system will help
to find a replacement.

Development of Dodo IS commenced upon opening
the first Dodo Pizza in 2011. At first, the IT team
consisted of only 3-5 people. Today, we have a team
of 30 engineers but at the current network growth
rate we need to expand it rapidly. The system
requires refactoring and a new architecture. The
system’s capacity must be accommodating of
thousands of pizzerias all over the world. At the first
stage, we need to increase the number of product
teams, developers and recruit highly-skilled IT staff.
How does Dodo IS set the
business up for success?
• Full transparency and control over
restaurant operations for maximum
efficiency
• Integration, transparency and management
efficiency for regional divisions
• Efficient management of global operations,
menu and the brand
• Higher competitive appeal of the Dodo

Corporate Chain Strategy
37. Sales
In April of 2015, the Khimki-based franchisee decided to leave the restaurant
business. The corporate-owned chain acquired the store. At the time the store
had been operating for 6 months with monthly sales of 1.6 million RUB and
negative profits. All the major global industry players were already operating in
Khimki: Pizza Hut Express, Domino’s, Papa John’s. In 6 months after the
acquisition the store started generating profit. By May 2016, monthly sales
reached 3.4 million RUB with 17% EBITDA margin.

Case-study: Khimki, Moscow region
• By improving management we achieved consistency and high-quality
product and service.
The team
• Experienced store manager from Syktyvkar
• New staff motivation system
• Implemented a new recruitment system
Cost optimisation
• Waste and shrinkage reduced
• Increased productivity of labor through optimised scheduling
Marketing
• Direct Mail - systematic customer acquisition
• Effective campaigns in social media
The Khimki case demonstrates the corporate-owned chain’s main
competence - systematic improvement of business efficiency and
profitability in competitive markets. The division’s strategy accounts for
eventualities where franchisees decide to exit the business. In such cases,
acquisition by the corporate-owned chain will be considered.

especially good at. It is a fast-growing chain with many
competitive advantages that I can be a part of. It’s a

41. ● The story of the Samara chain started in 2012, when two brothers Dmitry and Yury
Troyan opened their first Dodo Pizza. Today their franchise network consists of 8 units of
different formats operating in 4 cities.
● All pizzerias exhibit stable growth of sales overtime with each new-unit’s initial growth
rate exceeding analogous figures of previously opened units. The first store had been
operating for 10 months before its monthly sales reached 1.13 million rubles. The second
one took three months to match the same monthly figure. The third one brought 1.6
million in sales in the first month of operation.
● The pizzeria Samara-5 set a record of 2 969 003 rubles sales just 2 months after launching.
● The increasingly impressive growth rates of newer units can be explained not just by
increased brand awareness but also by increased experience and expertise of
management. The Samara team has set up a local training center to improve efficiency of
kitchen staff and management. New managers are recruited in part through a social media-
based blog, which currently has around 4000 subscribers. The blog focuses on business-
related subjects, pizzeria operations, best practices and team members’ personal stories.

● With a population of 100 thousand, Ukhta is a fairly small city by Russian
standards. In spite of this, sales in Ukhta are growing at an impressive rates.
● Likewise, the restaurant consistently scores high in monthly system-wide quality

43. Quality rating
Product qulity rating
● At Dodo Pizza it’s not just about pizza but rather the overall customer
experience. Details are of paramount importance: ambience at the restaurant,
immaculate sanitation, music, exceptional service and of course hot, delicious
pizza. We call this elaborate complex of goods, services, practices, designs and
arrangements our “product” - the experience. And we care passionately about
the experience being valuable to our customers. But an outstanding customer
experience cannot be entirely centrally manufactured. The “product” that keeps
customers coming back is brought to life by kitchen and management teams at
each pizzeria. Our responsibility is to put in place an effective mechanism for
ensuring consistently high quality throughout the system. So we created our
own unique quality control system.
By systematically working with mystery shoppers we compile weekly system-
wide pizzeria product ratings. The ratings are published every Monday. They
directly impact development of new sites - before being approved for
developing additional units a franchisee must meet certain criteria of the quality
control department, including maintaining a satisfactory quality rating for at least
12 consecutive weeks.
Standards Rating
● Twice a month each pizzeria is fully inspected to assess compliance with Dodo
Pizza standards regarding sanitation, storage, processes, hygiene etc. This rating
also affects approval of new site development.
Inspectors and mystery shoppers
● Mystery shoppers and inspectors are reimbursed with bonus points that can be
used to pay for orders at Dodo Pizza.

45. Dodo Pizza‘s long term goal is building a global pizzeria chain and mass consumer
brand. At the moment, two broadly-defined directions of development can be
identified — the already well-positioned rapidly-growing domestic network of stores
(in Russia and some neighbouring markets), and “venture” projects in the USA, China,
and the UK. In 2016—2018 we will expand our network in Russia, Kazakhstan,
Romania and the Baltic region. Simultaneously we will be getting ready for penetration
into other foreign markets starting from 2018. We will develop localised scalable
models for the US, China, and Great Britain, improve the company’s management,
and the information system Dodo IS.

• At the moment, franchising agreements
for development of 344 new pizzerias
have been signed with new and current
franchisees. A clause in the agreement
specifies the development schedules for
each project. Failure to meet store
opening deadlines would result in
suspension of the franchisee’s exclusive
right to develop in the reserved city. In
such instances, franchise fee payments will
not be refunded.
• Negotiations are in progress to sign
agreements for 184 more stores in Russia
and 16 in Kazakhstan by the end of 2016.
• In 2016, we signed agreements with
franchisees in the United Kingdom and
Belarus. The first pizzerias will commence
operations in 2017.
• The Russian market will be developed
through 4 pizzeria formats: medium and
large city pizzeria (population 50 thousand
and up), small city pizzeria (population
under 20-50 thousand), street food mini
pizzeria and food court pizzeria.

Russia and Kazakhstan detailed development plan
• Similarly, Saint Petersburg was divided into 11 sectors,
with estimated minimum capacity of 43 pizzerias, of which
26 have been reserved.
• Besides dine-in delivery, food court and street food
pizzerias will be opened in cities with population over 150
000. By 2026 we project to open 1 of each (street food
and food court) per every 150 000 inhabitants, which is
half of the estimated capacity.
• The Dodo Pizza network will also extend into towns of
20-50 thousand inhabitants. We intend to operate dine-in
delivery stores in every second small town in Russia and
Kazakhstan by the end of 2025.
• By the end of 2025, we plan to have 1581 dine-in
delivery, food court, street food and small town pizzerias
working under the Dodo Pizza brand in Russia and
Kazakhstan.
• As of August 1, 2016, all cities in Russia and Kazakhstan
with population over 1 million, except for Moscow and
Saint Petersburg, have been reserved. As per signed
agreements, 1 pizzeria will be opened for each 125
thousand inhabitants. Thus, in the near future, 265
pizzerias will be opened in major urban centers.
• Moscow was divided into 35 sectors with an estimated
capacity of 105 stores. Among them, 55 have already
been reserved.

48. International development strategy
• In 2018, we will actively venture into new
foreign markets. We will primarily consider
entering well-developed and flourishing
pizza delivery markets with presence of
leading industry players: Domino’s Pizza,
Papa John’s, Pizza Hut, Telepizza.
• The main competitive advantage of the
Dodo Pizza franchise is the information
system Dodo IS. It optimises pizzeria
operations, enhances efficiency and makes
the business streamlined and transparent.
The Dodo Pizza international strategy relies
on direct franchising. We don’t intend to
work with external master franchises. For
smaller territories (countries) we will offer
exclusive rights to develop a country-wide
network. In larger territories (countries), we
will distribute the franchise to multiple
franchisees through our subsidiaries in the
respective territories.
Direct franchising Why direct franchising?
• Direct franchising will allow direct
communication between the head office
and franchisees. It will also help preserve
the company culture, brand consistency
and enable effective quality control.
• Franchising directly will eliminate
unnecessary elements and inefficiencies in
the system. Franchisees will pay less in
royalties and the head office will earn
more than if there were an intermediary
present. This makes Dodo Pizza an even
more attractive offering on the franchising
market.
What makes it possible?
Direct franchising that transcends national
borders is made possible by effective remote
management and control over performance,
operations and quality enabled by Dodo IS.
Kitchen processes, customer satisfaction,
popularity of menu items, even “moods” of
kitchen staff all over the world can be
monitored online.
The deciding factor in securing the right prospects is
confidence of the public in the Dodo PIzza business model,
promoted through success stories of franchisees. As per the
company’s policy of total openness and transparency, monthly
sales of every pizzeria that is part of the network are
accessible to general public online. We are going to build a
franchising website where anyone will be able to monitor sales
of every pizzeria in real time. Entrepreneurs from all over the
world will have all the tools to determine whether Dodo Pizza
is right for them. In exchange for publicity, we will offer
incentives for franchisees in new markets - a royalty-free start-
up period of several years. Their success will become the basis
of further proliferation of the franchise.

50. First Dodo Pizza in China
• The first Chinese Dodo Pizza opened its
doors in Yantai, Shandong province on
June 6, 2016. First-month sales were
65 942 CNY.
• The second Chinese unit is scheduled to
open by the end of 2016 in the city of
Hangzhou, Zhejang province. The pizzeria
is currently under construction.
• Both pizzerias are franchises owned by
Russian entrepreneurs residing
permanently in China and co-financed by
Chinese partners.
• The head office together with our chinese
partners undertook a number of projects
to prepare for the launch in China:
thorough examination of the local pizza
market, brand adaptation, Chinese menu
development, packaging, marketing and
translating Dodo IS into Mandarin. The
first Chinese pizzerias will offer delivery
and dine-in service.
• At the moment, major international chains
Domino’s, Pizza Hut and Papa John’s are
successfully expanding in China. There are
also a number of Korean and domestic
pizza delivery brands running successful
operations across China. Similarly, we view
China as a market with enormous potential
for Dodo Pizza.
