Spur launches first drive-thru in South Africa

Retail 7 June 2021

The Spur Corporation announced that it has launched its first drive-thru restaurant as it aims to offer broader appeal and convenience to customers.

The drive-thru, situated in Karenspark in Pretoria, will offer meals that are traditionally sold at its restaurants including burgers, chicken wings, ribs and onion rings, the group said.

In addition, the drive-thru menu will include more snack-focused items including breakfasts and roadhouse-style desserts, it said.

Alongside the drive-thru is a traditional Spur restaurant where customers can have a sit-down meal.

In March, the Spur Corporation first announced that it had plans to expand its offering by adding drive-thru restaurants in South Africa.

“We are extremely excited to be launching the Spur brand into the Drive-Thru category, we are most grateful for the tremendous efforts of our internal teams and for the trust and partnership of our franchisee partner, Charles Fourie and his broader team,” Spur Corporation CEO, Val Nichas said in a statement.

“Spur Steak Ranches is on a journey of transformation as a brand and business. The introduction of the Drive-Thru is one of the progressive steps we are taking towards a more sustainable brand and business.”
