Why Pizza Hut Fell Behind In The Pizza Wars

Before the pandemic, Pizza Hut was already falling behind its competitors. Pizza Hut was the largest pizza chain by global sales until Domino’s moved into No. 1 in 2017. Three years later, Pizza Hut’s largest U.S. franchisee filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. Analysts say Pizza Hut needs to resolve three problems if it hopes to regain ground: reconciling its large restaurant footprint; upgrading its online ordering and delivery technology, which has been lackluster in comparison to its peers; offering a more popular menu.
CORRECTION (November 24, 2020): A previous version of this description incorrectly stated that Pizza Hut, not the chain’s largest U.S. franchisee, filed for bankruptcy. It also misidentified the reasons for Pizza Hut’s downward trajectory.

True I tried to go pizza hut 2 weeks ago and order the special 5 deal or carry out deal. Deal wasn't even what was advertise, pizza was lot higher even though. Quality isn't even worth the money so at that point Marco's pizza up street from me or Dominos instead because their 5.99 deal or carry out deals are truthful and I would just get a better pizza overall.

Yeah, they lack honest pricing strategies at some locations can be frustrating, on top of the tax for a takeout pizza you have to pay an inflated price due to weird additions such as "added toppings" and "service fee", a pizza that cost $10 dollars ends up costing $15 dollars. I never have that issue with Dominoes or Pizza Hut, what they offer is what you get.

@Jacob Stone They shouldn't charge a premium for what's not a premium pizza. I paid almost 40 bucks (38 dollars) for 2 pizzas one time, they didnt taste the best, but since it wasn't just for me I let it slide. The price never matches the quality

Their coffin was closing down stand alone brick and mortar restaurants that had old seasoned ovens and the staff that knew how to make a good pizza. Then they replace it with small carryout only hubs located in shopping centers usually. They try to force you to order online and use a credit/debit card to pay. The well over 40 crowd (myself included) still picks up a telephone and calls paying cash for things under about $50. It's all you "technical" and younger people screwing things up because you don't carry even $20 bucks in your wallet. That 3% card processing fee and renting the machine costs EVERYBODY more. I thought your mama raised all of you better than that. In order to keep the bottom line down and prices low you have to eat at a regular restaurant or carryout from one and pay cash.

Freezing dough doesn’t affect its quality. The problem with freezing food is any water in it expands, which ruptures whatevers containing it (generally cell walls). Hence frozen foods tendency to leak after thawing. Thats also why we can’t freeze and thaw people without killing them, fwiw, but since the defining characteristic of dough is it’s elasticity, it just isn’t an issue. It sucks, and it feels like cheating, but it has literally zero effect on the finished product. Nice try though.

Only it’s not I worked at both for a while and little ceasers product is cheap but made right it improves the basic 5. Most pizza huts use frozen pre made dough which saves money but If not poofed correctly the pizzas come out flat which is where the problem arises, sometimes you get busy and not prep enough and it stays busy so the pizza tastes wrong. They can’t prep too much because a lot of the time it’s slow. Pizza Hut don’t go cheap on ingredients.

(1) true off and on since at least the 1970s. They DID have a period under Pepsi when they ALL got good, but then Pepsi spun then (and KFC and Taco Hell) off into TriCorp and they've never really recovered.' (2) Only reason Buffets are down is COVID - they were getting MORE popular over the years 'till the lockdowns started, and with "shared food" the buffets got hit the hardest. (3) I've NEVER seen an area with a Pizza Hut that did not have delivery, with the exception of *ONE* - the Meadows Drive area of Indianapolis (highest crime AND MURDER rate area of Indianapolis for many many years). I worked as a driver for the Hut that WOULD have had that area - and was told I didn't have to worry about it, it wasn't covered due to too many drivers getting ROBBED or worse.

This is true. In the 80s-90 Pizza Hut was top tier and dominoes was gutter trash along with little caesars. From 2010-up until now, pizza greatly fell in terms of quality while dominos quality greatly increased. Little Caesar’s quality and innovations have improved the most. In my opinion they are best especially if you use the app to custom make your pizza and they give it to you fresh hot and ready. Instead of the ones that sit there for periods of time.

Pizza Hut was THE brand that got me salivating as a kid whenever I was craving for pizza. Their early commercials with the pan pizza cheese pulls will forever be iconic. But as I grew older, I cared less about the cheese alone and more about the bread and quality of ingredients. Especially when traditional Italian brick oven pizza became more mainstream. You can never really go back once you tried those superior pies.
@redmustangredmustang

Pizza Hut thought they could cut corners by using frozen dough and precut veggies and the customers could instantly see right through it. They really thought that they could reduce labor costs while still keeping the prices high and that turned the customers off. Compared to Dominoes where they ran they ad campaign to change the ingredients of their pizza to win critics back, Pizza Hut did the opposite. If Pizza Hut wants to be back on top, they need to go back to where they used to be where they used fresh dough and spend more on ingredients and then run an ad campaign to get their customers back.

Im 28, pizza hut used to be an experience. I sound like an old guy. Back in the day you would get the coupons for reading books in school and collect the free pizza. Pizza Hut used to have table clothes, candles on the table at night, Fresh iron skillet Detroit style stuffed buttery crust, with fresh cheese and flavorful, real sausage that taste like it came from an Amish market. Lol I had a pizza from pizza hut the other day........felt like I ate a tube of tooth paste on top a piece of white bread. Pizza's Huts problem is......they were really toooo good for this market. They lowered their standards to fit in. Pizza Hut should have simply stayed the same instead of getting greedy. Pizza Hut was always a dine in spot; but they tried to turn themselves into a takeout. Funny thing is it did nothing for them. Now Chick-Fila-a on the other hand? They are not greedy. They try to do one thing right and close on Sunday. That is exactly why they are the most successful chain in the U.S.

Pizza Hut refused even after she told the manager and they insisted that she ordered a charge back despite it costing them $25 to do so. They lost over $30 from the order and she ended up getting the tax money back on it as well!

I wound up waiting a additional 25 minutes because they couldn't find the damn order. People that came in after me ordered and got their order filled and left while I still waited. At the end I got something that kind of resembled wings, had no flavor, and was almost late to work. I can't even fathom how bad their pizza is.

I worked at Pizza Hut in college from 2013 through 2014 and while I was there they sold off the old dine in location and moved us into a strip mall with no dining area and instead invested in Wing Street (basically same quality as buffalo wild wings, just at Pizza Hut) and it was a dud. It was part of their rebranding, but it also killed off a lot of repeat customer. I used to know several of the people and families that would dine in at certain times and would just go ahead and make what they wanted so it would be at the buffet within minutes of them showing up and a lot of those people probably felt shafted when we moved.

Back home in Puerto Rico, Pizza Hut is often a sit down restaurant. But in the States it's mostly a delivery place like so many other pizza places so they don't stand out to me as much, even their taste is now similar to the other cheaper pizza delivery places. Maybe when the pandemic is over Pizza Hut can try to go back to being about quality and sitting down places as well as take out and delivery instead of putting most of the energy into the delivery aspect. I'm very interested to see if they are gonna take the "be more like the others" or the "let's do our own thing but better" option.

Totally agree! You can tell just by looking at the older commercials they showed, especially the ones from the 80s. The cheese and topping quality has declined drastically. My husband and I were telling our kids about when we were kids, even leftover Pizza Hut was still good. Not anymore! Now 2 hours later the meat is shriveled up and if you didn't order extra cheese, you may as well throw it away.

Dominos has better crust honestly and I personally think that makes all the difference when it comes to the pizza. I’ll admit that I miss the old hut style Restaurants that they used to have. They always felt so welcoming and warm, especially in the winter where they would turn on their giant furnace that was located near the center. I always enjoyed sitting near it.

It’s weird that literally everybody else here seems to have had the opposite experience lately

Domino's isn't great, but its still decent and relatively cheap. Pizza Hut is expensive, and tastes so bad compared to what it used to taste like. It can be hit or miss - if you found a decent owner, maybe they are doing something that is better than the average Pizza Hut.
