Döner & Gyros
Founded in the UAE in 2012, Döner & Gyros is a Mediterranean-inspired quick-service franchise specialising in döner kebabs, gyros and wraps, with restaurants in the UK and overseas.
About Döner & Gyros
Döner & Gyros was established in the UAE in 2012 and made its debut in 2014. Founded by Nabi Naseeb, the Mediterranean-inspired quick-service brand brings together two popular street foods: döner kebabs and gyros. Its menu focuses on freshly prepared sandwiches, wraps and platters, supported by an established operating model and supply chain.
The business expanded across the UAE before entering international markets. Its UK franchise rights are held by Kaspas founder Azhar Rehman. The supplied profile identifies restaurants in Norbury, Rugby, Taunton, Bury and Dover, although additional UK listings have since appeared online. Earlier restaurants in Aylesbury and Reading have closed.
Döner & Gyros offers franchisees assistance with site selection, operations, training, marketing and supply chain management. Applicants follow a staged approval process that includes interviews and a discovery day at the brand’s Dubai headquarters.
