40 years of home delivery pizza in Japan

Today and September 30th annually is Home Delivery Pizza day. An anniversary cleverly established by the giant pizza delivery chain Domino's Pizza. As a pioneer in the home delivery pizza market in Japan, they chose the date of Home Delivery Pizza Day as the commemorative date of the opening of the first Domino's Pizza store in Ebisu, Tokyo on this day, September 30th 1985. The store was the first to offer the service called "home delivery pizza" in Japan.
