Proposed appointment of Non-Executive Director and Chair
DP Poland, the operator of Domino's pizza stores and restaurants
across Poland and Croatia, is pleased to announce the intended
appointment of David Wild as an independent Non-Executive Director
and Chair of the Company, subject to the completion of normal

Mr Wild is expected to be appointed to the board in early 2023 and
succeed Nick Donaldson as Chairman of DP Poland's Board of
Directors.
David Wild brings extensive experience in the consumer sector to
the Board, including executive and non-executive roles at publicly
listed companies. David was CEO of Domino's Pizza Group, UK/ROI
Master Franchisee, from 2014 until 2020, a period where the company
expanded significantly through accelerated new store openings.
Prior to that, he was CEO of Halfords plc and has prior senior
executive experience at Walmart Stores Inc., Tesco Plc and RHM
Foods Limited. David held a variety of positions at Tesco over an
18-year period including CEO Central Europe where he managed the
entry into Poland and other adjacent territories.
In addition to his executive experience, David was previously
Senior Independent Director of both Premier Foods plc and Ten
Entertainment Group plc. David has a degree in Chemistry from
University College, Oxford.
Statement from Nick Donaldson, Chairman of DP Poland:
"It has been an honour to be Chairman of DP Poland, and I leave
the Company in a strong position. I'm delighted that David will be
taking over from me, building on the senior Domino's experience in
the company that Nils Gornall and Andrew Rennie brought to the
Board with their appointment earlier this year. Combined with
David's experience working in Poland, I couldn't imagine a better
placed successor.
DP Poland has been transformed and matured significantly during
my tenure and is now ideally placed to prosper, with a clear
strategy and first-class leadership team."
Statement from David Wild, Chair designate of DP Poland:
"It is an exciting time to be joining DP Poland and I am very
much looking forward to working with the Board and the wider team.
I am delighted to have the opportunity to play a role in driving
the future success of the business, blending my prior experiences
in Domino's and Poland to drive value for all stakeholders."
Mr Donaldson will step down from the Board on 31 December 2022,
as previously announced on 15 June 2022, having completed more than
nine years on the Board. Przemyslaw Glebocki, existing
Non-Executive Director, will be appointed as Interim Chairman for
the short period expected between Mr Donaldson's departure and Mr
Wild's formal appointment.
A further announcement confirming the appointment on completion
of customary regulatory due diligence checks and disclosing
information in respect of Schedule 2(g) of the AIM Rules will be
made when appropriate.
