The Chicken Slice Story: From Mvuma Startup to Zimbabwean Fast-Food Giant

Founded in 2010 by visionary entrepreneur Tawanda Mutyebere, Chicken Slice rose from a single strategic location in Mvuma to become one of Zimbabwe's most beloved fast-food brands. This is the story of how a commitment to quality, affordability, and customer service created a national icon.

The Journey: From Mvuma to the Nation

Chicken Slice began its journey in Mvuma, a strategic location that proved to be the perfect launchpad. Under the parent company Packers International, the brand rapidly expanded, opening branches in major cities like Harare, Gweru, and Bulawayo, and becoming a household name across the country.

The company successfully entered a market long dominated by established players like Innscor Africa (Chicken Inn, Pizza Inn) and later, international giants like KFC. By focusing on its core values, Chicken Slice carved out a significant market share and won the loyalty of the Zimbabwean people.
