As third-generation restaurateurs with more than 40 years in the hospitality industry, the business of delicious food runs in our blood. It’s what we know, what we do, and what we love! Our goal is to create a wonderful memory with every meal at The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill.
…Just like the entire menu at The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill, where authentic, classic Mediterranean flavors are created daily from traditional family recipes using natural and genuine ingredients. Whether it’s a savory grilled skewer, a refreshing and crisp salad or wrap, a tasty appetizer, a tender gyro, a dessert, or more, we are looking for Master License Partners to introduce and grow our unique franchise in Spain.
The Master License opportunity: building at regional scale
A European Master License grants you exclusive rights to develop The Great Greek within a defined European territory, potentially spanning multiple countries. You open flagship locations, recruit franchisees, and build a Mediterranean restaurant network across your territory.Revenue streams include flagship location profits, franchise fees from franchisees you recruit, and ongoing royalty income from your network. Europe's urbanization, dining sophistication, and growing Mediterranean cuisine interest create substantial opportunity for a multi-market operator.
As this is a global network, the Master Franchisee must be able to communicate in English, however the business in the local market can be conducted in the local language.

The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill Inks Master Franchise Agreement for Guyana and Seven Caribbean Countries
Multi-unit KFC and Pizza Hut franchisee will oversee the brand’s development throughout the region
The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill®, an award-winning Mediterranean fast casual franchise, announced today that it has signed a master franchise agreement with the Beharry Group to establish the brand’s presence in Guyana and seven countries throughout the Caribbean including Antigua, Bahamas, Barbados, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago.
The Beharry Group is a distinguished international conglomerate headquartered in Guyana with interests in commercial and merchant banking, manufacturing, insurance, stock brokerage, automotive distributorship, and quick service restaurants. Helmed by Guyana native and chairman Suresh Beharry, the company was established more than 80 years ago, has over 4,000 employees, and manages a line of products sold throughout the Caribbean region.
Suresh Beharry and the Beharry Group are successful Yum! Brands multi-unit franchisees with a portfolio that includes 12 KFC® and 10 Pizza Hut® franchises, with six more units in active development. The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill is the company’s first foray into the fast casual space.
“I had the pleasure of trying The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill while on a trip to South Florida and immediately fell in love with the brand,” said Suresh Beharry. “After years of operating quick service concepts, we saw an opportunity to diversify our portfolio with a fast casual brand that brings something different to the Caribbean market. Mediterranean cuisine is increasingly popular around the world, and we believe that same demand exists across Guyana and the wider Caribbean. The Great Greek allows us to tap into a clear gap in the market while introducing a dining experience that blends high-quality food with the speed and convenience today’s guests expect.”
The Beharry Group is kicking off their development of The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill with a restaurant in Georgetown – Guyana’s capital and largest city – expected to open later this year. The company plans to develop additional restaurants in the future and will bring on franchisees to expand The Great Greek’s presence in the other seven countries.
“We are thrilled to welcome Suresh Beharry as our master franchise partner for the Caribbean,” said Bob Andersen, President of The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill. “Suresh brings a deep passion for The Great Greek brand and a strong commitment to building long-term success – not only for the concept itself, but for the future franchisees who will grow alongside it. As a life-long resident of Guyana with extensive business relationships across the region, he is uniquely positioned to introduce The Great Greek to the Caribbean and lead the brand’s expansion in this exciting new market.”
The Great Greek Mediterranean Grill is a better-for-you, premium fast casual concept delivering fresh, cooked-to-order Mediterranean cuisine with the friendliness and attention to detail of full-service hospitality. Its menu champions authentic Mediterranean recipes featuring high-quality ingredients, including freshly prepared proteins, house-made sauces and dips, and vibrant vegetables, allowing guests to enjoy flavorful meals without compromise.
