Mochachos is avidly supported by the growing Muslim population in South Africa who enjoy the flavorsome, lemon & herb as well as the hot, spicy and zesty meals. Mochachos prides itself in its affiliation to SANHA (South African Halal Association) since 2004. SANHA holds a highly respected reputation amongst the Muslim community in South Africa due to its stringent HALAAL compliance regulations which are rigidly enforced on all its members. Mochachos is affiliated to FASA (Franchise Association of South Africa) since 1995.

The Concept
Mochachos Chicken Fiesta evolved out of a need in the market for Healthy and Exotic foods. The phenomenal growth of Mochachos Chicken Fiesta stores locally and internationally has highlighted the immense popularity of Mexican foods. Mochachos supports an optimally evolved menu with a core delight in Mexican Flavored Flame Grilled Chicken combined with a special blend of dry herbs and spices, a variety of traditional Mexican dishes and an array of delectable Burgers.
The design and décor of the restaurants take advantage of the rich colors of Mexico which are blended into a warm and inviting ambience and provide customers with a “real” food experience.
Our unique meals are prepared on order ensuring that our patrons experience only the finest in quality, coupled with our generous portions, extensive menu offering and freshest ingredients.
Mochachos offers an experience and not just another take out or restaurant. Its colorful and trendy, internationally up to date "shop fit" combined with its piquant savor allows its patrons to enjoy a "feel good" experience. The design and décor of our outlets mirror the rich colors of Mexico. Momentous research, planning, analysis and development have culminated in the state- of- the- art fast food layout and ambience focused design that we enjoy today.
Our stores can be set up in various configurations and therefore a variety of different site types are suitable for our operational requirements i.e. Food Courts, Independent Retail Space as well as Standalone Drive Thru structures. The required size of premises varies from as small as 60m2 to over 300m2. Mochachos is one of very few brands that can boast successful integration into all levels of the QSR market including Food Courts, Full Service Restaurants/cantinas and Drive through markets functioning as part of a shopping node or independently.
Mochachos is a household brand and dominant player in the franchise arena in Southern Africa and internationally. Mochachos is the second largest flame grilled chicken franchise in South Africa and the largest Mexican franchise in Sub-Saharan Africa.
