In Scotland most chip shops and non-chain pizza takeaways are owned by Italians or their descendants. I can’t think of a chip shop near me that’s isn’t named after an Italian second name.
Interesting. Where I am (small town in North West England) about half of the chip shops are combined chip shops/ Chinese take-aways and the others along with the general type take-aways (kebabs, pizzas and burgers) are run by Eastern Europeans.
The small number of Indian restaurants locally seem to be run by Indians.
It’s different again here in the north-east. Every chip shop is either named after the owner or founder, the name of whom is almost always English; or it’s called what it is or named after where it is (e.g. The <location> Chippy). Nowhere is combined, but the Indian and Chinese places usually do pizza, chips, chicken nuggets, and that sort of thing as well as whichever cuisine they specialise in.
Every Indian takeaway I know of is run by Indian people, but only a few Chinese takeaways are run by Chinese people around where I live.
