Jubilant FoodWorks faces LPG shortages as West Asia crisis bites stores
Geopolitical tensions in West Asia disrupt commercial LPG supply to Jubilant FoodWorks' store network; the company is conserving LPG and shifting to electricity and PNG, with limited immediate impact.
Jubilant FoodWorks said the supply of LPG cylinders to parts of its store network has been constrained due to the ongoing geopolitical situation in West Asia, impacting its Domino’s Pizza and Dunkin’ Donuts outlets across the country. The company noted that the disruption is being managed, and the operational impact at this stage is limited.
To cope with the shortages, Jubilant FoodWorks is taking several steps to conserve LPG and is moving toward alternate energy sources such as electricity and piped natural gas (PNG) where feasible. The firm also said it is in constant engagement with oil marketing companies to stay apprised of the latest developments and to plan operational responses as the situation evolves.
With resilient systems and processes in place to navigate short-term challenges, the company will continue to monitor the situation closely and adjust its deployment accordingly.
