In 2005, what started with an idea to help end world hunger by selling burritos at a restaurant in Canberra has turned into 300 restaurants globally in Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, the US and the UK. That one burrito has now helped donate over 80 million meals to those in need.
To celebrate the opening of our 300th restaurant location, we will be giving away 300 free burritos across all 300 locations globally. Mark it in your calendar and head into your local Zambrero and grab your free burrito on Wednesday 25th September 2024. T&Cs apply.
On Thursday 17 October 2024, volunteers across Australia will come together to pack over 430,000 meals for those in need. Our Zam Fam team members, franchise partners, suppliers and customers give their time, helping us achieve our goal at our meal packing events nationally.
Can't make it to a meal packing event? You can still help. Simply eat with us and you'll be contributing to our Plate 4 Plate Initiative. On Thursday, 17 October 2024, we'll be contributing double donations to Plate 4 Plate for every burrito, bowl or Kids Zam Box purchase. So save the date and head into restaurant or order online to help end world hunger!
Friday, 2 June 2023, SYDNEY. We have been made aware that there has been a question raised as to whether Zambrero is linked to the vegan quick service restaurant business, Flave. We would like to make clear, in no uncertain terms, that there is absolutely no connection between Zambrero and Flave. Zambrero was founded by Dr Sam Prince in Canberra, Zambrero’s growth and success is not only a testament to Zambrero’s leadership team, employees, franchisees and partners, but the loyal customers we serve each and every day.
Grilled, smoky and tender - we’re entering a new Grilled Chicken era taking our burrito and bowl to the next level.
You asked, we delivered. This new addition brings the bold flavours of smoky Grilled Chipotle and mild Achiote to the forefront. At its heart, lies our secret seasoning blend, infused into tender chicken before grilling and sealing in the flavours of our signature marinade using sous-vide cooking techniques, ensuring every bite is succulent and tasty.
Available Australia wide now. Worth the hype – try it today.

It was Jaydeep Gohil’s dream to build a multi-site burrito empire and he’s exceeded his own expectations. Jaydeep and his wife Anamika have surpassed their five-store ambition. The couple’s business, the Gohil Group, has in five years bought seven Zambrero restaurants in Western Australia at Mindarie, Beldon, Banksia Grove, Midland, Bassendean, Warwick and Yanchep. And there is no sign of the pair slowing down; the couple has plans in place for another two restaurants due to open this financial year.
An ode to our humble burrito | On National Burrito Day, 6 April, it only seemed right that Australia’s largest Mexican QSR; Zambrero paid tribute to the hand-held marvel with the credibility and respect the burrito deserves, encouraging the rightful celebration of the burrito in a new campaign in partnership with Today the Brave. Read more on B&T. “What better way to celebrate the burrito, than to eat one. Better still, eat one at Zambrero. This disruptive campaign celebrates our hero product using a striking and simple approach. It stands out from the crowd, just like our burrito does,” said Samantha Parker, GM Marketing, Zambrero.
In a highly competitive fast food and QSR market, Australia’s leading brands need distinct personalities and points of difference. Great food, authenticity, a strong mission and vision, brand awareness, systems and training, network support, culture and a profitable business model are all pillars of a successful food business. But when you’re looking to invest in a franchise how do you evaluate all these elements?
