AmericaJR’s Jason Rzucidlo recently visited Domino’sFarms in Ann Arbor. Domino’s Pizza Inc. is a large American pizza restaurant chain founded in 1960. The corporation is headquartered at the Domino’s Farms Office Park in Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States. In 1960, Tom Monaghan and his brother, James, purchased DomiNick’s, a small pizza store at 301 West Cross Street in Ypsilanti, Michigan, near Eastern Michigan University. One day an employee returned from a pizza delivery and suggested the name Domino’s. Monaghan immediately loved the idea and officially renamed the business Domino’s Pizza, Inc. in 1965.
