Regarding comparable store sales, the business portfolio in South America showed an increase of 70.3%, the brands in Mexico registered a growth of 26.5% and the operation in Europe grew 32.0%. At a consolidated level, same store sales grew 34.8% year-over-year.

The company invested 4,200 million pesos throughout the year, with which it had 179 corporate openings and 65 sub-franchises of its different brands, in addition to the first opening of Domino’s Uruguay.
