Tim Vasilakis, Founder & CEO of The Athenian and The Athenian Plant Based, explains how he pivoted his business into a dark kitchen, in an interview Podcast with Hospitality Mavericks. The Athenian has grown from a humble market stall to a small network of locations, earning the title ‘Deliveroo Restaurant of the Year 2020’ and “Highly Commended 2022” for Best Improved Visual Identity at the Restaurant Marketer & Innovator Awards in London.
In this episode, we discuss reconsidering the positioning of The Athenian, the rise of dark kitchens, focusing on our best dishes, our generous employee loyalty scheme – and the mouthwatering Greek cuisine.
