Goody's Burger House S.A. is Greece's biggest fast food company.[1] Its head office is in Building 14B, Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport in Spata, Attica.[2]
It was founded in 1975 by Ioannis Dionisiadis, Achilleas Folias and Nikolaos Pappas in Thessaloniki and has grown into one of the most well-reputed firms in Greece. It is the leading fast-food restaurant of Greece, having left behind the international chain McDonald's. In July 2001, after a hostile acquisition, Delta Holding S.A. became the major stakeholder in the company. In September 2006, Goody's along with Delta and a few more companies, started working under the umbrella of a parent company named Vivartia, owned by the Marfin Investment Group. It is now a subsidiary of Vivartia S.A., which is the leader of the food industry in Greece.
In January 2014, Goody's changed its name to Goody's Burger House. The most recent store to open under the new name is the one in Ioannina, at number 9 of Dimokratias Square.
Goody's serves over 160,000 customers daily, offering a variety of dining options, both for dine in and out-of- store in 5 countries. Goody's has restaurants in countries such as Albania, Macedonia, Indian Ocean (Mayotte), Australia and soon in Kosovo and Saudi Arabia. [3]
