You have a passion for sales and people, then join the experts in the African fast food
franchise industry and be a success by owning a Shisa Nyama.
Shisa Nyama is as diverse as the vast continent of Africa itself. Combining excellent grades of meat, the freshest ingredients, the friendliest service and the best dining experience possible, we offer you the best at Shisa Nyama.
hisa Nyama, a Zulu slang expression for ‘buy and braai’, has been traditionally practiced in African culture for years. These days, more and more folks are doing what Africans have traditionally done in their free time and it has evolved into a heritage symbol: grilling good old meat, aka shisa nyama. And now husband and wife entrepreneurs like you are taking things a step further. Shisa Nyama, a traditional buy-and-braai concept that started in South Africa’s townships, has taken off among the South African middle class. What started off as a way for
township butcheries to increase their weekend sales has grown in popularity, becoming a place where people go to relax and socialise. To the grilled offerings have been added formal bars, music performances and car washes, catering to those who want to while away the afternoon in a convivial environment. As a favourite hangout spot for up-and-coming professionals and South Africa’s emerging middle class, these venues have become ideal for networking sessions where business deals are frequently discussed and brokered.
From the outset, the Celes have striven to ensure that the very best service is provided, ensuring that the customer’s needs are met at all times. Shisa Nyama: a time to braai still stands today as testimony to their tradition of great tasting meat, served in a friendly and courteous manner. The first restaurant was started in Midrand, Johannesburg, catering to a middle- to upper-class clientele that wants to enjoy the townships tradition in the northern suburbs. The restaurant has been such a success that the Cele’s have franchised both restaurant/lounge and fast-food outlets. It is bringing the African tradition to people where they work and sometimes live, part time or full time. Perpetual focus is on quality of product and service with a smile, food without compromise and an ever-improving ambience.
Shisa Nyama Midrand was founded seven years ago. It all started with the idea of a place which people could regard as a home-away-from-home, be it during working hours or time to have fun in the evening or the weekend. Many would ask why in the suburbs, but that's the whole Idea of bringing back the vibe and creating a place where people not only enjoy good soul food and soul music.
Shisa Nyama uniqueness lies in offering value-for-money, top quality meat, combined with special blends of spices, ensuring tantalising flavours that appeal to all palates. The creative image, standardisation of products and adherence
to cleanliness serve as the franchise’s main competitive advantages. The customer base is comprised mostly of the Black community, but also has great appeal to all cultures.
A primary business goal of Shisa Nyama is to be at the forefront of JOB CREATION, which is essential in our communities to assist in our country’s economic growth. In addition, we are determined to build a brand that can compete with the key industry players who are currently dominating the fast food industry. The Shisa Nyama brand is divided between the restaurant/lounge and fast food franchises. The fast food option serves as a take away franchise and the restaurant/lounge provides a sit-down restaurant that is combined with a social event
with live music and all the trimmings of an outdoor restaurant.
Great and well prepared Shisa Nyama Food
