ANN ARBOR, Mich., Aug. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- What do tacos and cheeseburgers have in common? They often don't deliver well. That changes starting today, thanks to Domino's Pizza Inc. (NYSE: DPZ), the largest pizza company in the world based on global retail sales. Customers can now enjoy Domino's newest specialty pizzas – the chicken taco pizza and the cheeseburger pizza – which were created for delivery.
"We're excited to add even more options to our lineup of delicious specialty pizzas," said Art D'Elia, Domino's executive vice president-chief marketing officer. "Now friends and family who are craving a taco or cheeseburger on pizza night won't be disappointed. Domino's new taco and cheeseburger pizzas are sure to satisfy everyone."
Domino's chicken taco pizza is topped with American cheese, taco seasoning, grilled chicken, fresh onions, green peppers, diced tomatoes, provolone cheese and cheddar cheese. Domino's cheeseburger pizza is made with a tasty ketchup-mustard sauce, American cheese, beef, fresh onions, diced tomatoes, shredded provolone and cheddar cheese. Customers can order either new specialty pizza for $11.99 each.
Getting it right when delivering traditional tacos and cheeseburgers isn't easy, as customers in Domino's new TV commercials, which begin airing on Aug. 31, can attest. Domino's searched for real customers who took to social media with stories of burger and taco deliveries gone wrong and surprised them with cheeseburgers and tacos that were built for delivery.
"Domino's customers can now have the best of both worlds: the mouthwatering flavors of a chicken taco or cheeseburger, on a pizza designed to be delivered," said D'Elia.
