West Africa's largest quick service restaurant (QSR) chain Chicken Republic has announced Glovo and Chowdeck as its delivery partners in the country. “As a customer-focused brand, it is crucial for us to align with partners who prioritise the customer at the core of their operations, particularly in addressing the last mile challenge. This partnership holds significant importance as we join forces with a proudly Nigerian brand to tackle this issue,” says Kofi Abunu, Managing Director of Food Concepts Plc, Chicken Republic's parent.

Chicken Republic, West Africa's largest quick service restaurant (QSR) chain, has announced that Glovo and Chowdeck will be its delivery partners in Nigeria. This partnership is aimed at addressing the last mile delivery challenge and providing enhanced customer service. Glovo operates in 58 Chicken Republic stores across Lagos, Abuja, and Ibadan, while Chowdeck is present in these locations as well as Port Harcourt. Customers can now place orders through either of these two delivery partners. The organized fast-food industry in Nigeria is estimated at $602.5 million and has been growing at a rate of 10% annually. Investors like Y Combinator have shown interest in the sector, investing in African food delivery startups. Despite challenges such as the economic downturn and rising food costs, entrepreneurs and investors, including Y Combinator, remain optimistic about the potential of cloud kitchens in Africa.
