Galito’s is a well-known South African fast-food franchise famous for its flame-grilled Afro-Portuguese peri-peri chicken. The brand was founded by Louis Germishuys in 1996, with its first restaurant opening in Nelspruit (now Mbombela), Mpumalanga.

Known for using fresh ingredients, bold spices, and traditional grilled cooking methods, Galito’s rapidly expanded from a local chicken outlet into an international restaurant brand. Today, the company operates more than 250 stores across over 13 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America. Galito’s is also recognized for maintaining strict SANHA-certified Halaal production standards through its centralized kitchen operations.
