Supermac’s is working on opening their first branches outside of Ireland but they haven’t chosen just any location.
That’s right, the Irish fast-food chain has its eyes set on popular destination Australia. More specifically they are hoping to open one in Sydney and one In Perth.
Founder Pat McDonagh told the IrishEcho: “We’re now looking at one or two other sites there and we’re also looking for a franchisee there.
“We have a number of inquiries actually but I’m going over there now in October myself, to have a look around and interview some of the people that have shown an interest in it – both in Sydney and in Perth.”
He added that location is the most important factor: “We’re working had on it, but getting the right site is crucial and getting a site near where the vast majority of Irish people congregate – which is probably Bondi Junction or that vicinity – is key.”
Originally the chain had hoped to be up and running in Australia by Christmas but that now looks unlikely with the company eager to take their time to find the perfect location.
