Is it halal? Canada
Is Domino's halal in Canada?
Unclear, no public statement
Domino's Canada has published nothing on halal. Its national Nutrition Guide of August 2025 lists every topping's ingredients and never uses the word: pepperoni is pork and beef; ham, sausage and bacon are pork. The franchisor supplies Canadian stores from its own centres, and no register or directory lists a Canadian Domino's. Domino's UK's halal statement does not apply here.
What the evidence supports
| Question | Supported finding | Scope | Source and date |
|---|---|---|---|
| What has Domino's Canada said? | Nothing on halal. The Nutrition Guide (August 2025) never uses the word; the sitemap's 23 pages, the locator data and a store's structured menu carry no halal field or qualifier; no indexed @DominosCanada post or reply mentions halal (its indexed replies are complaint handling pointing to customersfirst@dominos.ca); no Canadian news story was found. | Canada, national | Domino's Canada, Nutrition Guide and site data, read 1 October 2026, retrieved 2026-10-01 |
| Is the pepperoni pork or beef? | Both. The Nutrition Guide's ingredient statement for Pepperoni begins “Pork, beef, salt, spices (mustard), dextrose”; a second line for the sliced pepperoni on specialty pizzas reads the same way. | Canada, national ingredient document (August 2025) | Domino's Canada, Nutrition Guide, retrieved 2026-10-01 |
| Which toppings contain pork? | Pepperoni (pork and beef), Italian Sausage, Ham and Bacon Strip Crumble, each beginning with pork in the guide. Salami, Beef Crumble, Donair Meat and Philly Steak are beef; grilled chicken is chicken breast. Three cheeses list lipase without naming its source. | Canada, national ingredient document (August 2025) | Domino's Canada, Nutrition Guide, retrieved 2026-10-01 |
| Who supplies Canadian stores? | The franchisor. Domino's Pizza, Inc.'s media kit says nearly all international distribution centres are owned by the master franchisee in each market, “excluding five international company-owned dough manufacturing and supply chain centers in Canada”, and that its network of 29 centres across the United States and Canada provides stores with more than 200 products. No halal, supplier or sourcing wording. | Canada, national supply | Domino's Pizza, Inc., media kit, retrieved 2026-10-01 |
| Do store pages or delivery menus say anything? | No. The Uber Eats listing for 4040 Creditview Road, Mississauga, names the Pepperoni Feast, Canadian, Philly Steak, wings and Chicken Bacon Alfredo with no halal word; Uber Eats' Mississauga brand page lists two stores, with halal appearing only in the platform's navigation; TripAdvisor's page for the same store carries no halal attribute. Zabihah once listed two Mississauga Domino's, both now marked closed and no longer online. | Mississauga, Ontario (platform copies and directories) | Uber Eats, TripAdvisor, Zabihah, retrieved 2026-10-01 |
| Is any Domino's restaurant certified? | Not on any register we read. The Halal Monitoring Authority's certified-restaurant register (82 entries) and ISNA Halal's restaurant directory (34 entries), read in a rendered browser on 1 October 2026, name no Domino's; HMA's supplier list does not name it either. | Canada | HMA, ISNA Halal, retrieved 2026-10-01 |
| What does Domino's say elsewhere? | Domino's UK on X, 23 March 2018: “While we no longer have any halal stores, all our chicken, with the exception of our chicken wings, is halal slaughtered.” Domino's Australia dropped halal certification at three Sydney stores in 2015, citing low take-up (Yahoo Australia). Both are statements about those countries. | United Kingdom, Australia (not Canada) | @Dominos_UK via search snippet; Yahoo Australia, retrieved 2026-10-01 |
What this means before you order
Nothing published. Domino's Canada's one national ingredient document, the Nutrition Guide printed “AS OF AUGUST 2025,” was read in full on 1 October 2026: the words halal, kosher, zabiha and certified appear nowhere in it. The chain's store-locator data (63 records for a Mississauga search) carries no halal field, the structured menu of a Brampton store names its meat toppings with no halal qualifier, and the Mississauga listing on Uber Eats (4040 Creditview Road) names the Pepperoni Feast, Canadian and Chicken Bacon Alfredo pizzas with no halal word.
No @DominosCanada post or reply on halal is indexed, and no Canadian news story exists. The supply is national: Domino's Pizza, Inc. says its Canadian dough and supply-chain centres are company-owned.
What the Nutrition Guide does say matters for a halal diet. Pepperoni is “Pork, beef, salt, spices (mustard), dextrose, lactic acid starter culture, garlic powder, sodium nitrite.” Italian Sausage, Ham and Bacon Strip Crumble each begin with pork. Salami, Beef Crumble, Donair Meat and the Philly Steak topping are beef, and the grilled chicken is chicken breast, with no sourcing, supplier or slaughter wording anywhere. Abroad, Domino's UK said in 2018 that it no longer has halal stores but that its chicken, except wings, is halal slaughtered, and Domino's Australia dropped halal certification at three Sydney stores in 2015; both are statements about those countries.
Suppliers and preparation can change. Confirm the current halal information with the specific restaurant before ordering.
What official sources establish
Domino's Canada's national document is its Nutrition Guide, printed as of August 2025, which gives nutrition and ingredient statements for every topping, cheese, sauce and side. It never uses the words halal, kosher, zabiha or certified. Its ingredient statements are the chain's own: pepperoni is pork and beef; Italian Sausage, Ham and Bacon Strip Crumble are pork; Salami, Beef Crumble, Donair Meat and Philly Steak are beef; the grilled chicken is chicken breast; three cheeses list lipase without naming its source.
The chain's other public data says nothing more. Its sitemap of 23 pages has no halal, allergen or sourcing page; its store-locator records carry no halal field; a Brampton store's structured menu names its toppings without qualifiers; and no post or reply by @DominosCanada on halal is indexed by search engines. The parent, Domino's Pizza, Inc., describes a company-owned Canadian supply chain (five dough and supply-chain centres) that provides stores with more than 200 products, without a word on halal.
Locations and products
No Canadian Domino's is listed as halal today. Zabihah once carried two Mississauga Domino's entries; both are now marked closed and their pages no longer exist, and Zabihah's current Mississauga list of 379 places contains no Domino's. The Uber Eats listing for the Creditview Road store in Mississauga names the Pepperoni Feast, Canadian, Philly Steak, Honey Garlic and BBQ wings, Chicken Carbonara and Chicken Bacon Alfredo with no halal word or tag; TripAdvisor's page for the same store carries no halal attribute.
Because the franchisor supplies every Canadian store from its own centres, a halal topping would have to be a national product; the guide lists none. A franchisee could in principle buy a halal topping locally, but no store has published that it does, and the chain's guide warns that every pizza can differ.
Certification, ingredients and preparation
The Domino's halal pages that Canadian readers find are British. Domino's UK said in March 2018 that it no longer has halal stores but that all its chicken except wings is halal slaughtered, and a 2019 email from the UK company described stunned halal chicken with wings excluded. Domino's Australia dropped halal certification at three Sydney stores in 2015. Each statement is scoped by the company to its own market and establishes nothing about Canada, where the ingredient document names no halal product.
Pork and beef pepperoni on the same line makes the Canadian pepperoni unsuitable for a halal diet regardless of certification; the beef, chicken and steak toppings carry no sourcing or slaughter statement, which is the gap a certifier would close.
What Domino's has not said, and what to check before ordering
Not said by Domino's Canada as of 1 October 2026: whether its beef, chicken and steak toppings come from a halal-certified supplier; the source of the lipase in its cheeses; whether any Canadian store has ever been certified or advertises halal; and whether its Canadian FAQ, which serves no readable text, carries a halal answer.
Before ordering, treat pepperoni, Italian sausage, ham and bacon as pork products on the chain's own ingredient statement; ask the store whether its beef and chicken toppings are halal and which supplier and certifier stand behind them; and ask how shared surfaces and cutters are handled if that matters to you.
Domino's halal FAQs
Is Domino's halal in Canada?
Domino's Canada has not said so, and its own ingredient document points the other way: the August 2025 Nutrition Guide never uses the word halal, names pepperoni as pork and beef and lists ham, sausage and bacon as pork. No certifier register or directory lists a Canadian Domino's. Halal Food Pass does not certify halal; ask the store before ordering.
Is Domino's pepperoni pork or beef in Canada?
Both. The Nutrition Guide's ingredient statement for pepperoni begins with pork and beef, in that order, for the standard and the sliced specialty-pizza pepperoni alike.
Which Domino's Canada toppings contain pork?
Pepperoni (pork and beef), Italian Sausage, Ham and Bacon Strip Crumble, each beginning with pork in the chain's guide. Salami, Beef Crumble, Donair Meat and the Philly Steak topping are beef, and the grilled chicken is chicken breast.
Does Domino's Canada have any halal chicken or beef topping?
None is named. The guide gives no sourcing, supplier or slaughter statement for the beef, chicken or steak toppings, and the franchisor, which supplies Canadian stores from its own centres, publishes no halal product for Canada.
Who supplies Domino's stores in Canada?
Domino's Pizza, Inc. itself. Its media kit says the Canadian dough and supply-chain centres are company-owned, unlike most international markets where the master franchisee runs distribution, and that its network across the United States and Canada provides stores with more than 200 products.
Does Domino's UK's halal statement apply in Canada?
No. Domino's UK said in 2018 that it no longer has halal stores but that its chicken, except wings, is halal slaughtered. That is the British company's word for Britain; the Canadian guide names no halal product and Domino's Canada has made no comparable statement.
When was this page last checked?
On 1 October 2026, when the Nutrition Guide, the sitemap, the locator and store data, the delivery-platform listings, the directories and the registers were read, with a second search of social accounts and press the same day. The next scheduled review is 31 October 2026.

On 1 October 2026 we read Domino's Canada's Nutrition Guide (August 2025) in full, including its ingredient statements; its sitemap of 23 URLs; its store-locator API (63 Mississauga records) and the structured menu for store 10586 in Brampton; its national store directory; Domino's Pizza, Inc.'s media kit; the Uber Eats listing for 4040 Creditview Road and the Mississauga brand page; TripAdvisor's page for that store; Zabihah's Mississauga list and the two former Domino's entries; the HMA and ISNA Halal registers in a rendered browser; the Domino's UK and Australia items; and searches restricted to the Canadian press.
The Canadian FAQ page serves no readable text to our tools in either language, so we could not read it; that is a limit of our tools, noted here, not a finding about the chain.
What we could not check: Domino's Canada has published nothing on halal; its FAQ, the page most likely to carry an answer, serves no readable text to our tools, so this page rests on the chain's ingredient document, store data, delivery listings and the parent's supply description. The Nutrition Guide is dated August 2025 and warns that every pizza can differ. The X replies, Facebook pages and TikTok videos could not be opened.
Research and review: Researched by Halal Food Pass editorial on 4 August and 1 October 2026. Reviewed by Shaz Khan, publisher.
Change log:
- : First published as unclear, no public statement: the national Nutrition Guide (August 2025), sitemap, store-locator data and store pages and menus for Mississauga, Oakville and Brampton read with no halal wording; the Canadian FAQ could not be read in either language; HMA register checked, ISNA would not open.
- : Nutrition Guide re-read in full with its ingredient statements (pepperoni pork and beef; ham, Italian sausage and bacon pork; lipase in three cheeses); sitemap (23 URLs), store-locator data and a Brampton store menu re-checked with no halal wording; the Canadian FAQ still an empty shell, recorded as a failed read, with a 20 May 2026 Wayback capture noted for a human to open; HMA and ISNA Halal registers read in a rendered browser, CHFCA could not be read. Label unchanged; claim table and sections added. Review cadence set to 30 days.
- : Rewritten so the answer leads with the evidence: the Nutrition Guide's ingredient statements, the franchisor's company-owned Canadian supply chain (media kit), the Mississauga Uber Eats and TripAdvisor pages, Zabihah's two closed Mississauga entries, the registers, and the UK and Australian statements as not Canada. The unreadable FAQ is now one sentence in the method note. Label unchanged.
How to read our halal labels
We report what a chain, a named certifier or a specific restaurant says, with the scope of that statement. Halal Food Pass does not certify halal.
A statement about chicken does not automatically cover the whole menu. A supplier certificate does not establish restaurant certification. A lack of published certification does not tell us how animals were slaughtered.
When a chain states publicly that its food is halal, we report that statement as the chain's own word, with its date, its scope and the certifier it names, and we treat it as standing until the chain withdraws it or evidence contradicts it. A claim that rests on unnamed phone calls or an anonymous post is reported as a claim, not as a finding.
