OBJECTIVE
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH DESIGN
I prefered 50 respondents as sample size in Bhilai.
Descriptive research was adopted.
RESEARCH METHODS
I will prefer interview and filling of questionnaire to ensure and encourage frank
responses to the questions. While framing a questionnaire I will try to list a series of questions,
which can provide me the needed information. For study purpose I also keep in mind the
respondents understanding capacity, ability to recall the information and his experience limits. I
will not include those questions, which can have misconceptions and promote non-co-operation.
SOURCE OF DATA

2. Secondary data

out in paper form usually to a specific demographic to gather information in order to provide
better service or goods. The questionnaire was invented by Sir Francis Galton.
Questionnaires have advantages over some other types of surveys in that they are cheap,
do not require as much effort from the questioner as verbal or telephone surveys, and
often have standardized answers that make it simple to compile data. However, such
standardized answers may frustrate users. Questionnaires are also sharply limited by the
fact that respondents must be able to read the questions and respond to them. Thus, for
some
question, open-ended question (free answer question), and close ended question. In this
report open and close-ended questions are used. The method was discussed questioning.
Each person was asked a set of question in given order and answer is limited to a list of
alternative. The studies are descriptive in nature. It is connected to study the present state
of affair as it exists. The open study tries to explore the system at present and report on
it.

various industries.
It involves control over the data gathering activities as compare to other method

LITERATURE REVIEW
I. Domino’s Pizza Since 1960 when Domino’s was associated with only one store, the company
has grown to provide a variety of quickly-delivered hot food items to customers on every
continent . The company prides itself for its innovation of items in pizza and speediness of
delivery . The company now uses franchise in all over the world.
In the following study , I will analyse the Journal done by “Anita goyal ,N.P Singh
”(2007 ,by british food journal )(cited on 2 – march -2010 ) Tittle : consumer perception
about fast food in india . he founded that most of the young generation of india prefer fast food
outlet just for fun & change because ,they have highest value for taste & quality .
So, according to the article it presents an idea that Indian young generation likes
homemade products and they are hygiene conscious also that’s why they prefer homemade items
but go domino’s only for outing and just for fun. In addition, I had analysed the recently
publicized YouTube video of two Domino’s employees performing disgusting acts on food that
II. Customer Needs The most basic element of Domino’s marketing mix relies on the
understanding of the needs and wants of the customer. They recognize that the customer wants
the right pizza delivered to their door within a short period of time and while still hot. Families
are now defined by much more than a father, mother, and two children; more members of the
family work full-time. For these reasons and other cultural shifts, there has been a move toward
consumer demand for fast, easy, and prepared foods. The core benefit sought from this
combination of pizza product and delivery service is convenience, which Domino’s has
recognized and strives to provide for customers. In another journal done by Jagwinder singh
,B.B Goyal (2008 ,by journalof strategic marketing ) (cited on 20-march-2010 ) Tittle :
comparative analysis of rural & urban Indian consumer’s attitude towards foreign products ,
he founded out that rural consumers were found more impressed by the foreign products as
compare to the urban peoples because rural people thinks that foreign products are of good
quality ,sign of prestige and a wide choice of models they found and a wide choice of models
they found there and urban people are very price conscious and always take decision after
times are going to face a very strong threat from foreign brands ,particularly in consumer durable
category because india is one of the most promising & fastest growing economy of the world and
III. Services : Domino’s and other fast-food providers are increasingly recognizing the need to
provide outstanding customer service in addition to the food products in order to build a loyal
and satisfied customer base . This means that Domino’s employees must provide a pleasant
experience for customers and demonstrate their willingness to exceed expectations if Domino’s
is to be the distinguished pizza delivery company. This guideline, in addition to the expectation
that employees are patient, polite, and treat customers with respect refers to the service quality
This is the actual service delivery and the company must recognize and close the gap between
the delivery and service quality specifications so that the perceived service provision meets
expected service . By observed journal done by Raffio,R (2007, by Restaurant Business ) (cited
on 12-march 2010 )
Tittle : Domino’s pizza ,he found that domino’s is now the second largest chain in the country
valued at over $ 200 million & with sales of $ 400 million . Its growth rate has been
phenomenal and 1000 units were added to the now 1200 unit chain in the past 5 years.
such disaster and in building up such a profitable business . It also looks at how the pizza chain
is run today , its policies and strategy for growth and the fast food chain may become public
In another article I had observed that the journal done by (Pratscher.M) (cited
on 19 – march -2010 ) Tittle : can domino’s dominate the pizza market ? he found that
although there was widespread diversification throughout the fast food business . Domino’s
pizza is the most popular and fastest growing food service segment ,but also takeout and
delivery sales in general are predicted to triple over the next decade .Domino’s success can be
IV. People in Services : to provide excellent service, organizations must understand that they
must focus on their front-line employees and management first. This involves hiring the right
people who fit the company culture and are service-oriented; training them and providing them
with the right tools to serve the customer; and retaining those people as satisfied and engaged
employees ..
By analysis of the journal done by Minni Jaitly (technical director , Midas food
international ) (cited on 14- march -2010) Tittle : current trends in the foodservice sector in
according to the article india has diversified culture and its own unique food preferences.
Although Indian culture is largely associated with the pronounced use of some key
ingredients and spices, differences in region, culture, climate. India is rapidly becoming a
key market for consumer goods and processed foods. Indian have very busy lifestyle,
heightened awareness, and a desire to imitate the West makes India a very suitable market for
prepared foods. Most the fast food chains like Pizza Hut, McDonald's, Domino's Pizza, kfc etc.
Even the government has recognized the potential of the processed food industry and has
declared food processing a major thrust area. This means that there will be subsidies from the
government as well as important tax benefits. But before developing food for the Indian market,
it is important to understand the traditional influences and key flavors of Indian food to

HYPOTHESIS TESTING
Hypothesis testing
Hypothesis testing is the often used strategy for deciding whether a sample data offer
such support for a hypothesis that generalization can be made. Hypothesis testing enables us to
make probability statements about population parameter(s). The hypothesis may not be proved
t – test is based on the normal probability distribution and is used for judging the significance of
several statically measures, particularly the mean. The relevant test statistic, t, is worked out and
compared with its probable value at a specified level of significance when the sample size is less
than 30 and it is used for judging the significance of the measure concerned. This is most
frequently used test in research studies.

Critical value – 1.860
The null hypothesis is that consumers are satisfied with Domino’ s and alternative is that
consumer’s are not satisfied with Domino’s . So we can calculate the value of t-test and in the
critical value is less than the calculated value(critical value 1.860 and calculated value is 2.87 )
so the null hypothesis is rejected and alternative hypothesis is accepted .
That means consumers are not satisfied with domino’s pizza
