Sales of Domino’s pizza in Ireland and the UK were up 11.4 per cent last year, which helped to buffer the company against additional costs associated with the Covid-19 pandemic. Earnings before interest and taxes in Ireland and the UK amounted to £104.3 million, which was up slightly from £102.4 million in 2019. “In the UK and Ireland sales growth has been strong throughout the year, especially over the initial lockdown period,” said the company. Its 2021 guidance for the UK and Ireland outlines planned capital expenditure of about £15 million. “The performance of our delivery business during the year was very strong, more than offsetting the lack of collection business at a sales level,” it said.
