As well as the recent annoncement of the Llantrisant (South Wales) Domino’s Pizza store opening in Winter 2009, developers are hoping that the arrival of a pizza business at Wigan Pier will have a domino effect on attracting other firms.

While the new apartments at the revamped Trencherfield Mill have been occupied with relative ease, the recession has ensured it has been a tougher ask to fill the commercial spaces created there. But that is set to change after development company Stewart Milne announced its first commercial letting: the world’s leading pizza delivery company, Domino’s.

With contracts now exchanged, Domino’s is set to occupy just under 1300ft sq of retail space within the canal-side conversion. A council source said: “Domino’s is a big coup for Wigan Pier. Not only that, there are usually two or three other businesses waiting in the wings for Domino’s to make the first move then come in after it so this could be the start of a bit of a rush.

Fingers crossed.” Formerly a working cotton mill, the Grade II listed building has been expertly renovated to offer a mix of prime retail and leisure space, Grade A office accommodation with parking and 52 apartments. Around 80 per cent of the flats, which have one and two bedrooms, are now sold. Malcolm Deans, managing director of Stewart Milne Developments, said: “This is an encouraging start to this phase of Trencherfield Mill, and demonstrates a demand for well placed quality commercial space. “With discussions underway with companies looking to expand, we are confident that Domino’s Pizza will be the first of many.”

The Pizza delivery chain has seen its online ordering sales double in the space of two year taking 11% of the market compared to 28% in the first quarter of 2009, this was according to the NPD Group’s Consumer Reports on Eating Share Trends (CREST). Russell Weiner, Chief Marketing Officer for Domino’s explains that then online site has contributed greatly to the success of the company he said it has “become a tremendous growth engine for Domino’s pizza and the face of our brand for many of our most valued customers.”

Not one to let the grass grow under their feet, Domino’s are keen to capitalise on their new found online popularity. They are currently offering an incentive to customers giving away $10 gift card to the first 499 people who email in with their name and mailing details explaining why they like ordering Domino’s Pizza online.

With the rising popularity of their Domino’s site, combined with their outstanding customer service, it’s  fair to say that’s Domino’s Pizza is bucking the economic trend and flourishing in the fast food industry.
