                Domino's Pizza UK&IRL plc
                            
            ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING STATEMENT
                            
Domino's  Pizza UK&IRL plc, the AIM listed pizza delivery
company, held its Annual General Meeting at 11.00 today.

Colin  Halpern, Chairman, updated the meeting on  current
trading and the outlook for the year saying:

'Sales in the first fifteen weeks of the year to 9  April
2000 were 13.1% up on the previous year. As the year  has
progressed  sales  have improved such that  like-for-like
sales  are almost up to the level achieved in the  strong
start   to   1999.    We  look  forward  to   forthcoming
initiatives including the Euro 2000 football championship
and  new e-commerce partnerships to provide strong growth
in like-for-like sales.

Six  new stores were opened in the first quarter  of  the
year,  which was ahead of budget.  Of these, one will  be
operated corporately and five by franchisees.  One of the
franchise  stores was opened in the Republic of  Ireland,
bringing the total to five.  Two stores were closed.  The
total number of stores now stands at 205. The outlook for
store openings in 2000 remains very positive with a  good
portfolio of stores at various stages of construction and
planning.

The  number  of corporate stores has grown  this  quarter
from  13  to 15.  A number of new corporate openings  and
the   acquisitions  of  several  groups  of  stores  from
franchisees  are  planned.   The  staffing  to  manage  a
significant  increase in the number of  corporate  stores
has imposed additional costs on this part of our business
in  the early part of the year.  This is expected  to  be
recovered  in  the second half of the  year  as  the  new
stores are opened or acquired.

E-commerce  initiatives  continue  to  grow  rapidly.  In
February  we reported that within eighteen weeks  of  the
start-up of our e-commerce ordering, sales had reached 2%
of delivery sales in the UK. This has since grown to 2=%.

An  important initiative announced last week was Domino's
move  into e-fulfilment' or last mile delivery, by using
up  to  2000 delivery staff across our current 205  store
system  to deliver products ordered via the internet  and
interactive television. The first such initiative  is  an
association  with 'gameplay', a leading  games  retailer,
and we will be delivering a computer game together with a
pizza  and  Coke  the  night before the  game's  official
launch.

The  'gameplay'  initiative has understandably  attracted
high  levels of media attention, given that this  is  the
first time Domino's has delivered any product other  than
the  traditional  pizzas and side orders.  We  anticipate
that  'gameplay'  will be the first  of  many  successful
ventures  of a similar nature in our expanding last  mile
fulfilment activity.


The  'Second  Wave'  of e-commerce  partnerships  is  now
finalised, and involves a number of key platforms. Our co-
promotion  with 'Yahoo!' will create a dual-branded  site
offering a unique promotion to 'Yahoo!'  users from  17th
April  until  4th  June. Building  on  our  success  with
'Open...',  Domino's will go live nationally on Cable  and
Wireless interactive from May 2nd, and on a rolling basis
in  11 Telewest regions from March to August. The company
that  helped us deliver the world's first interactive  TV
order,  Yes  TV, is rolling out into three  major  London
areas  and  Domino's  will have the  same  brand  leading
position on the Yes TV platforms in these areas.

A  deal  has  been  finalised  with  BT  Easicom,  giving
Domino's  an  exclusive presence in  the  Easicom  walled
garden from May, and negotiations are well underway  with
a  number of mobile communications service providers with
a view to launching Domino's WAP ordering in the next few
months.'

The  Directors  expect that the balance between  the  two
halves  of the year will more strongly favour the  second
half  in  the  current year than in  previous  years  and
remain  confident  of  producing a result  in  line  with
expectations for the year. They remain confident that the
strategy of using e-commerce as another means of  growing
store sales, increasing the coverage of the system by the
accelerated roll-out of new stores, and the growth in the
number   of  stores  operated  corporately  will  deliver
shareholders the anticipated growth in value.
