Introduction With increasing disposable income and changing attitude, the exposure to various global cuisines or local delicacies, the Indian food lovers are always ready to taste both. The demand for various fast food items is rising in India. The most popular of them all is Pizza, which is now one of the most favorite fast food items of the Indians. Major companies in this field are as follows: 1. Pizza Hut 2. Domino’s 3. Papa John’s 4. Smokin’ Joes Fast food is one of the world’s largest fast growing industry types. India’s fast food industry is growing by 40%. The 6000 crore fast food retail industry is mainly dominated by the multinational players and the key players which are active in the research of the food retailing. Because of the availability of raw material for fast food, global chains are flooding into the country. The percentage share held by food service of total consumer expenditure on food has increased from a very low base to stand at 2.6% in 2001. Eating at home remains very much ingrained in Indian culture and changes in eating habits are very slow moving with barriers to eating out entrenched in certain sectors of Indian society. The growth in nuclear families, particularly in urban India, exposure to global media and western cuisine and an increasing number of women joining the workforce have had an impact on eating out trends. Domino's Pizza and Pizza Hut, the two big US fast food chains entered India in 1996. Each claimed it had the original recipe as the Italians first wrote it and was trying desperately to create brand loyalty. Domino's and Pizza Hut - tried to grab as large a slice of the pizza pie as possible. While Pizza Hut relied on its USP of "dining experience", Domino's USP was a 30-minute delivery frame. To penetrate the market, both the players redefined their recipes to suit the Indian tastes. Domino's went a step ahead by differentiating regions and applying the taste-factor accordingly. Domino's also made ordering simpler through a single toll-free number throughout the country. Domino's and Pizza Hut expanded their market ever since they entered India. Pizza Hut is the world's largest casual dining restaurant chain with over 13,000 restaurants across 97 countries and 143 stores across 34 cities in India, including Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Chennai, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Pune, and Chandigarh and Yum! is in the process of opening Pizza Hut restaurants at many more locations to service a larger customer base across the country. Today Domino's Pizza India has grown into a countrywide network of more than 300 stores with a team of over 9,000 people. According to the India Retail Report 2009, Domino’s Pizza were the largest Pizza chain in India and the fastest growing multinational fast food chain between 2006-2007 and 2008-2009 in terms of number of stores.

Strategies of Pizza Hut and Domino’s Pizza Overall both the companies achieved what they wanted to as for Domino’s Pizza they have achieved in positioning themselves as the fastest serving pizza outlet and quenching the hunger. Pizza Hut has come to become synonymous with the “best pizzas under one roof”. They have positioned themselves for their unique dining experience. Thus from the market feedback, it can be seen that even customers feel the same as what the company wants them to.

1) Strategic Formulation Domino’s Pizza: Overall Cost Leadership, Differentiation and Focus This is achieved very effectively by Domino’s Pizza as they do not intend to lose their focus from delivering pizzas at home. 70% of their Domino’s Pizza brand thus relates mainly to service & delivery neither they promote their in dining experience nor they spend revenue for it. Domino's vision is focused on “Exceptional people on a mission to be the best pizza delivery company in the world! ´ Thus Domino’s Pizza is able to provide good pizzas at relatively lower rate as they don’t spend much for the restaurant. Pizza Hut’s: Premium price Pizza Hut is committed for providing uncompromising product quality, offering customers the highest value for money and giving service that is warm, friendly and personal. They stress heavily on the dining experience and the ambience. Thus at each point company charges a premium. Thus Pizzas from Pizza Hut costs a premium hence their customers also changes to high income groups.

2) Creation, Communication and Capturing Value Domino’s Pizza Domino’s Pizza India has always maintained its position in market with its constant product innovation and maintenance of stringent service standards. More importantly, it has established a reputation for being home delivery specialist capable of delivering pizza within 30 minutes. Domino's Pizza constantly strives to develop products that suit the tastes of its consumers and hence delighting them. Domino's believes strongly in the strategy of “Think global and act local” Thus, time and again Domino's Pizza has been innovating with delicious new products such as crusts, toppings and flavors suitable to the taste buds of Indian Consumers. Further, providing value for money at affordable products to the consumers has been Domino’s Pizza motto. Initiatives such as Fun Meal and Pizza Mania have been extremely popular with consumers. The Brand Positioning of ³Khushiyon Ki Home Delivery´ (Happiness Home delivered) is the emotional benefit Domino’s Pizza offer to consumers. Delicacies that do not rip wallets have always got the crowd coming back to the Domino’s Pizza although its ambience is not up to that of its competitors.

"Hungry Kya?" promotion where hunger gets quelled in less than 30 minutes was a great value proposition. All other activities, be it new variants, great service, timely deliveries or more for the same price the effort of Domino’s Pizza has always been directed towards making its customers happy, creating, communicating and delivering value.

Pizza Hut Worldwide and in India, pizza hut has become synonymous with the “best pizza under one roof” Pizza hut is committed to providing uncompromising product quality, offering customers the highest value for money and giving service that is warm, friendly and personal. A critical factor in pizza hut’s success has been its unique dining experience. One of the strategies they adapted was that the crewmembers at Pizza Hut break into a Boogie at restaurants in Delhi and Mumbai and do the Bhangra in Chandigarh and Amritsar. While a bell hangs at each Pizza Hut restaurant, which is rung by customers who as they leave wish to thank the servers for yet another memorable visit. Workforce of Pizza Hut is chosen with the motto “Together we grow” with primary concern being quality of service, be it in terms of delivery or quality of pizzas. Another factor in Pizza Hut’s success has been a menu that has constantly evolved and expanded to cater to the changing needs and specific preferences of customers in different parts of the world. In having understood the pulse of the customers in India, Pizza Hut has clearly established itself as a brand with an Indian heart. Besides offering an extensive range of vegetarian pizzas, it was the first pizza chain to open a 100% vegetarian restaurant in India in Surat and later in Ahmedabad and Chowpatty, where it offers a Jain menu sans all root based ingredients. Moreover Pizza Hut is not just a hangout zone for youngsters. It organizes birthday bashes, kitty parties and corporate lunches. They also have a variety of combinations of menu items which a customer can choose so that both the customer and the company can have a win-win situation. The company can have the maximum of the consumer surplus at the same time the consumer might feel that this was the best offer. From the menu card one can see the family size variants and the different pizza combinations in the same one pizza are all the different ways of pricing. Once the customer dines/orders @ home, normally discount coupons are given to the customer so that there is an incentive for the customer to order from pizza hut. Thus customers are forced to maintain loyalty towards pizza hut.

3) Brand Building Through Advertisement Domino’s Pizza and Pizza Hut initially restricted their ad strategy to banners, hoardings and specific promotions. In August 2000, Domino’s Pizza launched the “Hungry Kya?” sequence of advertisement on television. A company official said, “We realized that a pizza couldn’t be slotted- it could be a snack, then again it could also be a complete meal. The only definite common link between Domino’s Pizza and eating was hunger platform. This was followed by Pizza huts first campaign in July 2001 which said “Good time starts with great pizzas”. The ad was aired during all important programs on star plus, Sony, max, star movies, Hbo, AXN and MTV
