ANN ARBOR, Mich., May 21, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Domino's
(NYSE: DPZ), the largest pizza company in the world based on
global retail sales, knows one thing for sure – there is no
pizza without farmers. Domino's $5.99
carryout special, which is valid when you carryout large
two-topping pizzas today through May
27, will bring the hard work of America's farmers to your
table with any one of the 34 million combinations of Domino's pizza
you choose.
"There is no Domino's without the dairy, tomato, wheat and other
farmers across the United States
working hard every day to produce the food we serve," said
Jenny Fouracre, Domino's
spokesperson. "According to the USDA, 97 percent of the 2.1 million
farms in the United States are
family-owned operations and we are proud that so many of those
family farms help to make our pizza possible every day of the
week."
Domino's loves farmers and wants to support the future of
agriculture as well. That's why Domino's is in the second year of a
five-year, $1 million commitment to
the National FFA Organization (Future Farmers of America). This
month, 18 FFA students received college scholarships sponsored by
Domino's as they study to pursue a career in agriculture.
Customers looking to bring American farm products to their table
can take advantage of the weeklong $5.99 carryout deal by ordering over the phone,
in-store, at dominos.com, or via Domino's mobile ordering apps. To
