They know how hard it is to run a business, and they see the impact that substantial fees from delivery app services have on small restaurants. In recent weeks four Domino&#8217;s franchisees and one corporate-owned store have helped some beloved local establishments impacted by delivery fees. <\/p>\n<div class=\"PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference\" id=\"DivAssetPlaceHolder1\">\n<p>\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/1689586\/LocalSurprises1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><br \/>\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mma.prnewswire.com\/media\/1689586\/LocalSurprises1.jpg\" title=\"Select Domino's stores throughout Boston, Phoenix, Louisville, Denver, and Laredo, Texas, bought thousands of $50 gift cards from local restaurants and surprised randomly selected Domino's delivery customers with them in early November.\" alt=\"Select Domino's stores throughout Boston, Phoenix, Louisville, Denver, and Laredo, Texas, bought thousands of $50 gift cards from local restaurants and surprised randomly selected Domino's delivery customers with them in early November.\"\/><\/a>\n                <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Participating Domino&#8217;s stores across the <span class=\"xn-location\">Greater Boston<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Phoenix<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Louisville<\/span>, Laredo and <span class=\"xn-location\">Denver<\/span> areas bought thousands of <span class=\"xn-money\">$50<\/span> gift cards from local restaurants, randomly gave them out to Domino&#8217;s delivery customers, and encouraged them to use the gift cards by ordering directly from the local restaurants so they could avoid delivery app fees. These local Domino&#8217;s stores gave away more than <span class=\"xn-money\">$100,000<\/span> worth of gift cards from locally owned grills, taco places, barbeque joints, bakeries, delis and more, to roughly 2,600 customers throughout early November. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Running a restaurant is tough. Our franchisees benefit from being part of a brand that has operations and technology built for delivery,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Russell Weiner<\/span>, chief operating officer of Domino&#8217;s. &#8220;However, many small restaurants don&#8217;t have a system for delivery. Meanwhile, third-party delivery apps are charging local eateries high fees to deliver, which are taking away much of their earnings. Domino&#8217;s and its franchisees were inspired to pay it forward in these communities by helping drive business to a few neighboring restaurants \u2013 without the substantial fees.&#8221;\u00a0 <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We love that Domino&#8217;s has supported other restaurants and driven their customers to these mom and pops that could really use the help,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Irene Li<\/span>, owner of Mei Mei in <span class=\"xn-location\">Boston, Massachusetts<\/span>. <\/p>\n<p>Domino&#8217;s is committed to supporting the local restaurants and people that make our communities vibrant. If you&#8217;re not getting Domino&#8217;s, skip the delivery apps and order directly from a local restaurant.
