Our PERi-PERi Story
Our PERi-PERi story will fire your senses and feed your soul.
We mix a littlelegendary intoall our PERi-PERi
Our special PERi-PERi sauce is made with the perfect combination of Nando’s African Bird’s Eye Chillies, lemon, garlic, onion and herbs for that authentic flavour.
Our chilli doesn’t grow just anywhere
We’re proud of our Southern African heritage, which is why we grow our own unique type of African Bird’s Eye Chillies on farms across Mozambique, Malawi, Zimbabwe and South Africa. These special chillies grow with their tips pointing towards the sun. Each year, farmers handpick over 1 billion chillies to provide Nando’s with the very best produce for our PERi-PERi sauce.
Flavour takes time
To ensure that PERi-PERi flavour you know and love, we only source local, free range chickens. Our chicken is marinated in our famous PERi-PERi sauce for 24 hours, giving it time to absorb all those rich, delicious flavours before it’s flame-grilled to perfection.
Nando's for good
Nando's has never been just about the chicken. It's about the people who grill the chicken. Which is why we're so keen on making life that bit better for our communities. Here's some of our favourite why-we-get-out-of-bed projects.
Make your meal legendary
At Nando’s, we’re all for diversity. That’s why when you order at Nando’s you get to personalise your meal by selecting a flavour on our PERi-ometer. From tasty BBQ all the way up to a hit of Extra Hot, there’s a taste for everyone at Nando’s. Our PERi-PERi sauces are also available in major supermarkets.
Our Governance
Governance defines our structure and processes for decision making through a series of policies and reporting frameworks.
Championing Our Chicken
At Nando’s, we believe in doing things properly – that’s why our chicken is always from Free Range, SPCA Certified® farms. We’re all about raising the bar for animal welfare, ensuring more farmed animals are treated to standards that go beyond the legal requirements.
