Pizza Hut has partnered with Australia’s food ordering platform, Menulog, to ramp up its delivery across the country through Menulog’s sites: Menulog.com.au and EatNow.com.au.

There are now over 250 Pizza Hut stores now live across the platforms and an additional 70 planned.

“Pizza is Australia’s favourite meal for home delivery – in fact, it’s already the most-ordered dish through Menulog,” said Lisa Ransom, Pizza Hut CEO. “This new partnership is a great way to give our customers a more convenient way of ordering from our largest-ever network of stores across Australia.”

With over 8000 restaurant partners, Menulog has national reach and scale.

“We’ve seen exceptional growth in the number of nationally established outlets, like Pizza Hut, coming onto both Menulog and EatNow this year; a trend we see increasing in 2017,” said Rory Murphy, Menulog commercial director. “We’re looking forward to continuing to work with local franchises, to not only help drive orders and grow profitability for restaurant owners, but to continue to offer consumers a greater choice of cuisine for pickup and delivery in their local area.”

The Menulog partnership follows Pizza Hut’s announcement earlier this year it will transform more than 50 Eagle Boys stores into the Pizza Hut brand, creating a large network with 320 locations.
