Domino’s 2019 water footprint was 85.6 million cubic meters of water.
The three main categories of water usage for Domino’s included purchased goods (including the production of ingredients and packaging materials), which accounted for 91% of water usage.
Next was utilities (purchased tap water, wastewater discharge and water consumption associated with purchased energy), which accounted for 4% of water usage.
Finally, logistics (energy extraction and fuel production for transportation) resulted in 4% of our water usage.
A key learning that arose during the footprint measurement process was the data quality from corporate store and supply chain operations, as well as from suppliers, was not as detailed or robust as we would like.
One of the more noteworthy items that came to light during our baseline analysis is the large role that our natural gas ovens play in our carbon footprint.
As a brand known for innovation and technology, we look forward to working with our suppliers on future ovens that have a lower carbon footprint than the ovens of today.
Going forward we will look to implement systems and programs to track water usage more closely, as well as understand watershed implications from key suppliers with the greatest water impact.
Domino’s is looking at ways to increase our diversion rate in our supply chain facilities and we are working with our waste vendors across the company to improve data quality, as limited information is currently available on waste generation rates in certain markets for specific categories.
Corporate stores often have recycling and waste practices that are determined by building owners, but plans will be created going forward aimed at developing a better understanding of what improvements can be made at the store level as well.
In percent of recycled content in the boxes from 40% to 70% with 100% of our paper-based packaging sourced from fiber from responsibly managed forests and recycled sources.
Their policies do not allow the purchasing of fiber from illegal logging, the trade in illegal wood or forest products.
Our box suppliers do not purchase from operations that would have an adverse impact to regions of high conservation value.
According to the American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA), corrugated cardboard can be recycled at least seven times, and grease and cheese do not impact recyclability.
Through its network of fresh dough manufacturing and food distribution centers, along with one vegetable processing plant and two facilities that make the company’s thin crust product, Domino’s supply chain regularly provides pizza stores with more than 240 products.
For Domino’s, responsible sourcing means acknowledging the role we play in innovating and partnering with our suppliers as we move forward, in a way that increases ingredient information for our customers, enhances animal care standards and reduces our carbon footprint.
Domino’s requires that all suppliers comply with U.S. Department of Agriculture regulations on the humane treatment of animals as a baseline for all animal care.
Domino’s purchases pork, beef and poultry ingredients from suppliers who obtain their products from farmers and ranchers who raise and care for their animals in compliance with local, state and federal guidelines, industry best practices and the support of farm animal veterinarians.
