The company that oversees the Domino’s Pizza brand in Russia said it will file for bankruptcy there, signaling a definitive end to its operations in that country nearly 18 months after President Vladimir Putin launched an unprovoked invasion of neighboring Ukraine.
DP Eurasia, the franchisee for Domino’s in Europe and Asia, cited unspecified business challenges in Russia, where it operated more than 100 restaurants. The U.S.-based Dominos Pizza has said it cut off financial support for the Russian business in December 2022.
A bankruptcy filing is now forthcoming, the company said.
No food is inherently fast food. Since you’re not American, and we invented fast food, the term refers specifically to how fast and convenient it is to get the food.
Go through the drive through in McDonald’s and I can get a hamburger in less than three minutes from order to them handing me the bag. But if I order a hamburger from a sit down diner, it will take 30 minutes sometimes.
The hamburger from McDonald’s is fast food. The hamburger from the diner is not.
