About HUNKY DORY

Our man behind the Hunky magic, Greg, was raised on the water, standing proudly beside his Greek Dad & Grandfather on their commercial fishing boat. When school holidays rolled around, you could find Greg behind the counter at his family’s fish & chip shop. As a seafood-lover, Greg’s Dad was well known as one of the friendly faces at the Melbourne Fish Market for years. When Hunky Dory opened its doors in 2004, Greg’s family were by his side. They have all proudly worn a Hunkys t-shirt along the way; Greg’s Grandfather was still rocking one in-store until he was 91!
