PIZZA HUT. You can’t win them all
In Sydney, three Federal Court Justices, John Gilmour, John Nicholas and Mark Moshinsky, ruled against liquidator Bob Jacobs acting on behalf of Pizza Hut franchisees. However, the Justices did say Yum, the then franchisor, was “deserving of criticism” for not following up on early information that competitor Domino’s was set to introduce its own $4.95 price, therefore removing Pizza Hut’s “first mover advantage.”
