Jimmy Grants was a Greek-Australian souvlaki fast-food chain started in Australia by George Calombaris through his company Made Establishment Group.[1][2][3][4]
Whilst operating, the chain had multiple Melbourne locations including at Fitzroy, Emporium, Ormond, Richmond, and Ringwood.[2] The chain also opened a store in Sydney.[5][6]
The name of the restaurant stems from migrant experiences of Greek-Australians being nicknamed 'Jimmy Grant' (like 'immigrant') when co-workers on the docks found their names difficult to pronounce.[7]
Its flagship store in Richmond was architected in a tribute to 'an Australian suburban home, as experienced through the eyes of a migrant'.[8]
In 2020 following financial trouble at Made, Jimmy Grants was disestablished, with its stores being absorbed by the Stalactites Group under its souvlaki brand 'Hella Good'.[9][10][11][1] Stalactites attempted retain staff during acquisition.[12]
