Jimmy The Greek

In 1963, when Jimmy Antonopoulos immigrated to Canada from Nafplio, Greece, he brought four things with him: ingenuity, passion, an entrepreneurial spirit and a friendly smile.

One of his first jobs after moving to Toronto, was working in a restaurant in the Bay Street business district. This is where Jimmy's love of the restaurant business grew. As the city prospered, developed and expanded, Jimmy observed a void in the city core and shopping centres relative to the Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) market. In his view, there was both an opportunity and a need for high quality, freshly prepared food, served in a friendly and efficient manner. Today there are over 50 Jimmy The Greek food service operations across Canada.

Of course Jimmy gets the last word. "The success of our operations is a simple recipe: possess a burning desire to offer delicious high quality fresh food, provide fast friendly service and do it with a touch of Greek hospitality." YIA SOU!
