Inside Gerwyn Price’s latest side hustle as darts star shows off renovations ahead of new business venture
DARTS star Gerwyn Price has lifted the lid on his latest side hustle – selling fish and chips to hungry punters.
Price, 39, is one of darts’ top players and is competing in the Premier League.
The Welshman looks certain to miss out on the final in London next month after picking up just 12 points ahead of Thursday’s last group night in Sheffield.
But, after reaching the summit of the sport with victory in the 2021 World Championships, Price has been branching out into other fields.
The ace 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.
The cafe is set to be turned into a flat.
And he is now transforming a nearby former pharmacy into a fish and chip shop.
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.

And Price kept supporters updated on the refurbishment as he posted several snaps on Instagram Stories.
The pharmacy looked unrecognisable inside with building work going on all around, while a song repeating the words “fish and chips” played in the background.

Price did not reveal how long it will take before the takeaway is off the ground.
But he excitedly revealed he would also be providing customers with tartar sauce and cocktail dips to moisten their deep-fried delicacies.
And there will also be home delivery for the first time ever.
Price previously explained his plans to move into the takeaway business when he announced the closure of his café in December.

- PDC World Cup of Darts x2
- World Series of Darts Finals x2
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.”
