The Manager of the Year award recognizes exceptional store managers who live the company's mission and guiding principles. Garza has been a full-time Domino's Pizza manager for one year and currently runs a store in the town of Shelton, owned by franchisees Jeff and Gina Farmer, who have operated Domino's Pizza stores for 26 years.
"Jaron is an unbelievable store operator who has proven time and again an outstanding commitment to making his customers happy," said Tom Curtis, Domino's vice president of franchise operations – west region. "We are blessed to have such a positive leader who places so much value in his customers and team members. This is a great testimony to Jaron, his team and work ethic and I can't congratulate him enough."
Garza has worked in the Shelton store for the last six years. He started as a "door-hanger" distributing flyers, worked his way up to assistant manager, a job he had for three years. In May 2012, he became manager of the store.
Since his promotion he has increased sales and improved service metrics measured by the company. Garza's in-store efficiency resulted in 91.5 percent of delivery orders on their way to customers within 15 minutes of the time they place their order.
"Gina and I are extremely proud of this award that Jaron has received," said franchise owner Jeff Farmer. "There are some extremely talented managers that he competed with to receive this prestigious award."
