History

Adonis was founded in 1979 by Lebanese brothers Elie and Jamil Cheaib. Inspired by their roots in the Middle East and the idea of bringing their culture to a new world, the Cheaib brothers and their friend Georges Ghrayeb developed the idea of trading typical food of the Middle East in North America.

In 1979, they opened their small 1,000 sq ft (93 m2) store on Faillon Street, at the corner of Lajeunesse Street, in Montreal.

In 1984, the need to expand their original store and increase the size of the company quickly became synonymous with success and the fact that Montreal's Middle Eastern and Mediterranean communities had become very large. To better serve customers, the team had to focus on a more strategic location that serviced larger areas of the community, which led to the opening on l'Acadie Boulevard. Then two new stores in 2003. One on Sauvé Street and the other in the west island on des Sources Boulevard.

On October 26, 2011, Elie Cheaib, Jamil Cheaib and Georges Ghrayeb signed an agreement with Metro Inc. which acquired a majority stake of 55%.

In 2013, Adonis opened their first store in Ontario, Canada, located in Mississauga.
