One last flex:
Nando's is a purpose-led business with a global vision of “Changing Lives, Together.”

That’s the short way of saying we want to change the world around us by making a real difference to people's lives.

It gets us out of bed in the morning and it's why you'll find us doing good in communities locally and in our heartland of Southern Africa.

We embrace inclusivity and opportunity for all. We're enthusiastic and optimistic about the future (and your place in it).

We're proud of who we are and the products we make. Most importantly, we don't take ourselves too seriously.
