    New Delhi: Jubilant FoodWorks Ltd, which operates the Domino’s and Dunkin’ Donuts chain of pizza and coffee shops, respectively, in India on Wednesday reported a 8.7% jump in net profit to 73.94 crore for the fourth quarter of FY19, compared with a 68.06 crore profit in the year-ago period.

    Revenue from operations rose 11% to 865.19 crore in the quarter ended 31 March, the company said in a filing to the stock exchanges.

    During the quarter, the company announced the opening of Hong’s Kitchen, a fast casual Chinese dining brand that opened its first outlet in Gurugram. Hong’s Kitchen is the food services company’s first own restaurant brand and the third overall in its portfolio of brands. It also opened its first store in Bangladesh.

    For the full year, the company reported a 56.4% jump in net profit to 322.8 crore. That corresponds to 9.1% of the revenue clocked by the company during the year.

    “We are pleased with our results in FY19, it was one of our strongest years in recent times both in terms of growth and profitability. During the year, we also expanded our footprint into Bangladesh and entered the Chinese food category with our brand, ‘Hong’s Kitchen," Shyam S. Bhartia, chairman and Hari S.
