The new branch is expected to intensify competition among established fast-food chains in Zimbabwe, including Chicken Inn, Chicken Slice, KFC, and Barcelos. Hungry Lion’s signature fried chicken and combo meals have already gained popularity among locals at its Greenfields Retail Centre branch, positioning the brand for success in the Harare market.
With plans to open 200 new outlets across existing markets in 2026, Hungry Lion is committed to growing its presence in Zimbabwe and the broader African region.
Additionally, the company is set to launch its Madokero branch in Harare soon, further solidifying its position in the local fast-food industry.
