History

Created by the Danish-Japanese brothers Jens and Kim Rahbek Hansen and their brother-in-law Thor Andersen, the first Sticks'n'Sushi opened on Nansensgade (No. 59) on 22 March 1994. It has been followed by more restaurants in the Greater Copenhagen area.[2]

The first Sticks'n'Sushi in London opened on Wimbledon Hill Road in March 2012. In May 2013, the owners raised capital for further expansion abroad through the sale of a 49% share of their company to Maj Invest Equity .[3] The second Sticks'n'Sushi in London opened on Henrietta Street in Covent Garden in October 2013.[4] It was followed by a restaurant in Wimbledon in 2014. In 2015, a Sticks'n'Sushi opened in a listed building on the corner of Nelson Road and King William Walk in the heart of Greenwich, close to Maritime Museum, Cutty Sark and Greenwich Park[5]
