Episode #29
Meet Jonathan Faro, owner of Society Pizzeria and Johnny Gios.
Johnathon started his hospitality journey in catering at the age of 23 with Society Catering. With jobs all around Australia their mobile food business couldn't keep up with demand, Jonathan than opened Society Pizzeria on Bondi Road.
It didn’t take long for that shop to reach capacity selling over a thousand pizzas a week.
With his reputation of great service and food, it was meant to be a home run. As Johnathon describes it, he was over ambitious. Things didn’t go to plan, but instead of feeling sorry for himself he pulled himself out of the tough situation he was in and opened another shop during the hardest period of his life, that store was his second in bondi called Society Pizza Bar, and ended up being one of his best performing stores to date.
He has since opened a new concept called Johnny Gios, a takeaway pizza restaurant that Johnathon describes as your neighbourhood pizza shop, he already has two Johnny Gios locations and plans to open all around Australia and internationally once the borders open.
