GYG’s journey began in 2006 with our first restaurant in Newtown, Sydney. After realising that there was a genuine gap in the Australian market for fresh, clean Mexican food, our founders Steven Marks and Robert Hazan decided to create their own restaurant, Guzman y Gomez, named to honour their childhood friends. Steven and Robert had a vision to to re-invent the fast food category by building a restaurant business that served high-quality, nutritious food at the speed and convenience of traditional fast food.
After embracing the franchise business model, GYG now spans over 200+ restaurants in 4 countries across Australia, Singapore, Japan and the USA.
