One of the world's largest pizza companies, Domino's delivers pizza through a franchise network across dozens of markets. It began in 1960 when brothers Tom and Jim Monaghan bought a Michigan shop called DomiNick's; Jim later traded his half to Tom for the delivery Volkswagen Beetle. When the original owner barred the DomiNick's name for new stores, a delivery driver suggested "Domino's," and the logo's three dots stood for the first three locations.
