Owner of much-loved chip shop explains 'exciting but scary' move to burgers amid soaring costs
The owner of a 45-year-old Black Country chippy has spoken about the soaring costs which have led him to an 'exciting but scary' rebrand and move away from selling fish.
Peter Kakkoufa, who runs Pedmore Fish Bar, on Queensway, Wollescote, has announced that the takeaway is set to rebrand in the new year to help combat the rising cost of ingredients.
Pedmore Fish Bar was started in 1978 by Peter's father, Louie, and will become PK's in early 2024, undergoing a full menu change to help stay afloat during the cost of living crisis.
The announcement was made on social media last weekend, and now Mr Kakkoufa has opened up about the change which will mean no more fish after December 30.
He said: "This is very exciting for us, but it's definitely a bit scary - it has been a chip shop for such a long time. We are really excited for the future though.
