Chart #1 - The most important metric to assess retail business is sales per store. Chick-Fil-A is by far the most well-run quick service food (QSR) business. McDonald’s came in 2nd. Subway is really terrible.
Chart #2 - Domino’s has been growing its store count consistently over the last 2 decades globally. Now it is the largest chain of all pizza brands. Pizza Hut is having some choppy unstable years. Papa John’s is slow and steady.
Chart #3 - Success of Domino’s expansion? A mix of company-owned stores, as well as franchised stores that fueled growth. Control of supply chain to ensure quality. Fast adoption of online sales and offline delivery.

Chart #4 - Similar strategy of growing store count for Starbucks - use franchisees and make sure they are just as well run as company owned stores. The mix is more balanced here for Starbucks.
Chart #5 - Revenue and profit breakdown for Starbucks is startlingly similar to those of Domino’s, even the exact level of margins, despite being 2 different businesses.
