He will be joining the Nomination & Governance Committee.

Domino's Pizza Group Plc has appointed Mitesh Patel as an independent non-executive Director, effective from 1 June.

Patel will be a member of the Board's Nomination & Governance Committee.

Patel is the co-founder of Lenstore, an online contact lens business which in 2013 he sold to GrandVision, the world's largest optical retail group at the time and owner of Vision Express. Following the sale, Patel remained with GrandVision in various roles, including as Global eCommerce Director, until 2023, gaining substantial experience of working at a senior level in a franchise-based business.

"I am delighted to welcome Mitesh to the Board of Domino's. We are a business built on a network of highly entrepreneurial franchise partners, and, as a brilliant entrepreneur himself with significant expertise of working in franchise businesses, I am sure Mitesh will be a great addition to our Board,” Chairman Matt Shattock said.
