Gerwyn Price gives update on new business venture as he reveals darts-inspired name and logo for fish and chip shop
DARTS star Gerwyn Price is on the lookout for a fish and chip shop logo as he continues his side hustle.
Price, 39, is one of darts’ top players but is not in the Premier League semi-final.
But, after reaching the summit of the sport with victory in the 2021 World Championships, Price has been branching out into other fields.
The Welshman previously ran a cafe in his hometown of Markham, providing delicious treats and hot beverages to locals.
However, Price shut it down at the end of 2023 after struggling for business with the cafe to be turned into a flat.
But Price is now transforming a nearby former pharmacy into a fish and chip shop.
He revealed it will be called Chippy 501 – a reference to the score players start matches on.
But he asked his 311,000 followers: “Need a sign made for the outside of the chip shop with this logo… any recommendations of companies?”
Price will be hoping fans flock to Markham for the battered goods.
He will also be selling tasty kebabs after getting planning permission in 2024.

But there is no confirmation of when the takeaway will get off the ground.
Price previously explained his plans to move into the takeaway business when he announced the closure of his café in December.
He said: “The café is not doing too good at the minute – sometimes business is a little bit up and down.
“So, the café is going to shut. I’m opening a fish and chip/kebab shop. Turn the café into a flat.
“It’s a small village, it’s all about footfall in the village. Some days it earns a bit. Some days it doesn’t. It’s a bit slow.
“We will do deliveries. We didn’t do any from the café which may have probably helped.
“When I hope the fish and chip shop, it will be the likes of Just East and Deliveroo. It will be a bit better.”
