Background
Domino's outlets in Israel are run by an independent master franchisee, Elgad Pizza, under license from Domino's Pizza, Inc. — the US parent owns no stores there. The franchisee's October 2023 social posts showing pizza donations to Israeli soldiers drove worldwide boycott calls, and the BDS movement endorsed Domino's as an "organic boycott target" over its Israeli franchisee's actions. Al Jazeera reported that broader claims that Domino's (corporate) gave free food to the Israeli military were unsupported by evidence, and no donation by the US parent company to the Israeli military or government has been documented. After Trinity College Dublin Students' Union ended its sponsorship with Domino's UK/Ireland (a separate listed company, Domino's Pizza Group plc), the Israeli franchise deleted the posts; a Domino's spokesperson said the company hoped the union would reconsider, noting the impact on independently owned franchises.

Documented support
| Type | Date | Amount | Recipient | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Franchisee action | 2023-10-10 | — | Israeli soldiers (IDF) Domino's Pizza Israel — operated by independent master franchisee Elgad Pizza, not Domino's Pizza, Inc. — posted photos on Facebook of staff donating pizzas to Israeli soldiers, captioned "Domino's ❤️ IDF", three days after the Gaza war began. The posts and similar IDF-solidarity content were removed in February 2024 after Trinity College Dublin Students' Union ended its Domino's sponsorship and Domino's Pizza Group plc (the separate UK/Ireland franchise operator) asked the US-based master franchisor, Domino's Pizza International Franchising Inc., to have the content taken down; the UK group also said it hired a Hebrew-speaking monitor to review Domino's Israel content. |
