Wudon restaurant on Great Western Road, in the heart of Glasgow’s West End, saying that the new owners intend to take the premises ‘in a completely new direction’ to create an exciting new addition to the city’s food & drink scene.
The business has been purchased by brothers Chris and Robbie Moult who own FreshMex, which they established in 2015, and their plans for the Gt Western Rd site follow on from their existing venues in Aberdeen and Edinburgh.
The firm has enjoyed success over the years on the food delivery app Deliveroo, being named Scotland’s most ordered dish in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021 & 2023 with their Burrito as well as winning Best Mexican in 2024 & 2025 at the Deliveroo Awards.
Robbie Moult said: “We are really excited to bring FreshMex to Glasgow. The city has a tremendous food scene and we look forward to seeing how customers welcome our fresh tex-mex food.
“We have been searching for a number of years for the right location in Glasgow and believe we have managed to secure a really good spot in the popular & trendy west end.
“We would like to thank our loyal customers over the years for their continued support, it’s been an epic journey so far and we can’t wait to share our next chapter with them.”
Jonathan Clough, of Smith & Clough, who brokered the deal, said: “I was delighted to handle the sale of Wudon on behalf of the Wu family who established the business 16 years ago and enjoyed a tremendous reputation for their Pan-Asian cuisine, but I am excited to see the new incarnation of these premises as FreshMex and have no doubt that it will be a tremendous success and a welcome addition to what is already a vibrant licensed circuit.”
Clough has recently handled several high-profile venue sales, including Gamba, Mediterraneo, The Drake, The Bungo, The Meat Bar, The Gin 71 Group and Ziques.
He added: “The sale of Wudon is the latest in a long line of Glasgow restaurant & bar sales which we have carried out and the level of interest in the sale highlights the thriving food & drink scene in the city, and reflects confidence in the sector from operators who continue to invest in this great city.”
