AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

German Doner Kebab Leadership Move: Premium kebab chain GDK named Wayne Shurvinton as its new CEO, starting 1 September, as Simon Wallis steps down—another sign of consolidation and professionalisation in Germany’s fast-growing kebab segment. Food & Drink Business Expansion: Oklahoma’s Native American-owned Skydance Brewing Co. is expanding its venue and menu beyond beer into cocktails and full food service, aiming to keep customers coming even when craft-beer demand shifts. Travel & Hospitality (F&B angle): Bristol Airport’s £400m redevelopment will add new restaurants to the departure lounge, including Bill’s (from early summer 2027), Cosy Club, Wagamama and a new Tap + Brew bar working with a local craft brewery. Environment & Local Economy: Belgium’s record wildfire near the German border has forced evacuations and disrupted nearby hospitality, with smoke and ash affecting a restaurant owner’s business.
