The Grill’d chain was founded by Simon Crowe in 2004 in Hawthorn, Melbourne and specializes in freshly grilled burgers. It is the largest Australian owned burger franchise with locations in all Australian states with plans to expand into international markets.
Each Grill'd store donates $500 monthly to three local community groups split $300 / $100 / $100, with customers voting for their favourite by placing beer bottle caps into a jar[1].
The first Grill'd restaurant opened in 2004. There were 5 restaurants by the end of 2005, and 35 restaurants in 2010[2]. Grill'd had 69 restaurants opened as of mid 2013[3].
