Lovers of spicy wings and flame-grilled thighs, listen up. One of the nation’s favourite (or maybe even the favourite) chicken chains is expanding. That's right, Nando’s has announced that it will have four more new sites in the UK by the end of this financial year.
Since April, ten new Nando’s have already opened across the UK, including at Battersea Power Station in London and Capital Retail Park in Cardiff.
A branch on New Road in Brighton is expected to open in the new year while the locations of the remaining three are yet to be announced.
The exciting expansion comes as sales for the peri-peri specialist jumped by almost a fifth last year compared to the year before. It means that more of us will get to scoff on the latest additions to the Nando’s menu, which include a Peri-Mac and Cheese and a Garlic Churrasco Burger.
Rob Papps, group chief executive of Nando’s, said: ‘The 2023 financial year saw Nando’s deliver a steady recovery to pre-pandemic sales and a return to operating profit driven by strong consumer demand for our flame-grilled peri-peri chicken supported by our brand and customer proposition.’
Did you see that this British national park is planting 23,000 new trees?
