ABOUT US

Chicken Republic is a proudly Nigerian brand that comes from humble beginnings. We opened our first Chicken Republic restaurant in Lagos in 2004 and are presently trading in over 150 locations across Nigeria and Ghana, with plans to operate 430 restaurants by the end of 2024.  

From the start our vision has been: to be the most loved quick service restaurant brand in West Africa. Our “Taste More” philosophy encourages a bold spirit of adventure as we set out to challenge the status quo by providing our customers with tasty, everyday affordable value meals in clean, cool ambient restaurants that offer good customer service.

We invite our customers to experience more as they interact with our brand and enjoy our Soulfully Spiced Chicken and tasty sides, all flavoured to perfection with our unique blend of authentic West African herbs and spices.
