German Doner Kebab to open two new sites
The two new openings will create 40 jobs at both sites respectively and open up the brand’s new menu to more places
German Doner Kebab (GDK) has announced that it is set to open two new UK sites, in Norwich and Bluewater Shopping Centre.
The launch of its Norwich site marks the company’s 4th opening of the year and its 147th UK location to date.
The planned opening of its Bluewater site is part of the company’s ambitious expansion plans for 2025.
The two new openings will create 40 jobs at both sites respectively and open up the brand’s new menu to more places.
Simon Wallis, GDK CEO, said: “We’re thrilled to announce the opening of our latest GDK location in Norwich in our mission to bring the bold flavours of GDK to even more communities. Norwich has a rich culture and dynamic food scene, and we cannot wait to bring our fresh take on kebabs to the city. This opening is another milestone in our UK expansion, which has seen the brand grow from a single site to almost 150 locations nationwide.”
“Bluewater is one of the busiest shopping destinations in the UK, making it the perfect location for us to serve up our game changing kebabs. Our menu is built around quality ingredients, bold flavours, and providing a new elevated perspective on a nation-wide favourite.
He continued: “As we continue our rapid growth across the UK, openings like Bluewater are powerful markers of the momentum behind the GDK brand. We’re incredibly proud of how far we’ve come, and we’d like to extend a special thanks to our hard-working team across the country. As well as a huge congratulations to our franchise partners—their drive and dedication have been central to our journey and success. We look forward to introducing Norwich and Bluewater to Kebabs. Done Right.”
James Waugh, centre director at Bluewater Shopping Centre, added: “We are always looking for ways to enhance the dining experience here at Bluewater, and German Doner Kebab’s arrival will be a fantastic addition to our line-up of grab-and-go options in the Winter Garden. We’re thrilled that they have chosen Bluewater as their next location, and we’re confident our guests will love their menu’s premium version of the kebab.”
