The company logo originally had three dots, representing the three stores in 1965. Monaghan immediately loved the idea and officially renamed the business Domino's Pizza, Inc. One day, an employee, Jim Kennedy, returned from a pizza delivery and suggested the name 'Domino's'. Monaghan wanted the stores to share the same branding, but the original owner forbade him from using the DomiNick's name. īy 1965, Tom Monaghan had purchased two additional pizzerias he now had a total of three locations in the same county. Within eight months, James traded his half of the business to Tom for the Volkswagen Beetle they used for pizza deliveries. The brothers planned to split the work hours evenly, but James did not want to quit his job as a full-time postman to keep up with the demands of the new business. The deal was secured by a $500 down payment, then the brothers borrowed $900 to pay for the store.
