September 25, 2012 - Johannesburg, 25 September 2012 Scooters Pizza’s successful entry into the Namibian fast food market has been further bolstered as a third store has been opened, this time in Swakopmund. The addition follows after multiple-franchise owner, Amen Sunday Nghidengwa opened two stores in Windhoek last year.

CEO of Taste Holdings Food Division, Christo Calitz notes that the opening of the third store, situated at Vineta Complex on Verde Street, was motivated by the impressive business performance of the other two stores.

“It is through committed franchisees like Amen, who are growing their businesses within the group that drive the reputation of Scooters Pizza, and allow the brand to expand in footprint and organic growth. As the two Windhoek stores have achieved remarkable successes, it was a suitable and financially viable decision to expand our reach and offer consumers in Swakopmund a slice of the good life too,” says Calitz.

Nghidengwa states that he plans to replicate the notable impression that the franchise has made in Windhoek, and create a long term legacy for Scooters Pizza in Swakopmund.

“Owing to my experience in the franchise industry, Scooters Pizza has already become a firm favourite amongst the public in Windhoek because the staff and management are motivated and committed to providing only the best in terms of service and meal offerings. I intend to strive for the same outcome in Swakopmund.”

Since its inception in 2000, Scooters Pizza has been a leading family pizza franchise in the fast food industry, and currently has over 137 stores open in South Africa, Lesotho and Namibia.

“The performance of Scooters Pizza in Windhoek has met all of our expectations, and we are delighted that consumers have embraced the delectability of our meal offerings. Similar results emanating for our store in Swakopmund will provide an ideal showcase for the brand to extend our service offering even further.”
