Scope Of Work
GYG, a Mexican fast food chain, started in Australia by two native New Yorkers. GYG currently operates over 140 restaurants across Australia, Singapore, and Japan.
With strong growth across Australasia, GYG decided to launch the business in the United States and chose the city of Naperville, Illinois for their first location. With no construction expertise in the United States, GYG wanted to find partners to help them meet the tight budget and timelines for their first U.S. project. Through their civil engineer, GYG was referred to Thorndale Construction Services, Inc. to be considered to act as their general contractor. Alan Horsman, President of Thorndale, provided insight and guidance on the project to Robert Hazan, GYG’s Co-Founder and Executive Director. Mr. Hazan had temporarily moved to the United States to launch the Naperville restaurant and to find additional locations in the Chicago area. Once the bids for the project were received, Thorndale was appointed as the general contractor for the job.
