Goody’s chain expands to Australia

Will the Goody’s chain be as successful in Australia as it has been in the Balkans?

Greek fast food chain,Goody’s, is looking to expand to Australia following the initiative of a Greek-Australian to take it there. In Greece, Goody’s has managed to oust all other competition from the market, however it remains to be seen whether the local chain will be able to gain a share of the international market.

Australian newspaper Neos Kosmos reports that taking Goody’s to Australia is the brainchild of Greek-Australian businessman Kostas Tagalakis. The chain’s move to the land Down Under is considered a risk for Vivartia that has so far expanded close to home, going only as far as the Balkans (Albania, Bulgaria, FYROM) and Belarus.

There are currently 150 Goody’s restaurants operating in Greece and the Balkan region.
