Tom Monaghan and his brother, James, originally purchased "DomiNick's," a pizza store in Ypsilanti, Mich. with a bank loan of $500 to buy the store and a VW Beetle as a delivery car. A year later they parted ways, James taking the Beetle, and Tom continued the business taking on another short-term partner and expanding to 3 stores over the next few years. When that partnership ended in 1965 he decided to change the name to Domino's Pizza Inc - which was a suggestion of one of his drivers. FYI - the 3 dots on the domino logo represent the 3 stores that Tom owned at the time; 2 in Ypsilanti and 1 in Ann Arbor.
