What a Year 2019 has been!

Hey Chickens! Can you believe its the end of the year already?

2019 has been quite the year for us over here at Tiago’s! We have been running around like chickens without heads ensuring that our loyal Tiago’s fans continue to get the best experience in our now TEN branches! We have compiled some of our favourite memories to look back on with all of you.

Sponsorships

We get thousands of sponsorship requests sent to us every year and sadly we can’t say yes to all of them so when we are faced with a choice between two or more, we always ask ourselves the following questions:

Is it local? Is it legitimate? Does it align with our values of healthy, active living that builds on the local community?

  • South Coast Fever MTB Series
  • CANSA Shavathon
  • Crossfit Wildcoast
  • Glenmore Nippers
  • Nuts4Dakar
  • The Sharks Academy SKZN
  • The SPCA
  • The Southbroom Tennis Club
  • Amanzimtoti Highschool

There are some sponsorship’s that we do every year, like the CANSA Shavathon, The Bundubashers MTB Club and the South Coast Fever MTB Series, The Glenmore Nippers, The SPCA, Santa’s Shoebox, The Southcity Banana Bash as well as various schools and active clubs.

We went Greener, one single use plastic at a time!

Straws Suck! So you won’t find any plastic straws in our stores!

Over the past year and a bit we have been on a Green mission! We started by banning plastic straws in our stores, replacing them with paper straws for our milkshakes and metal straws for purchase.

We didn’t stop there!

The next step was to make our Tiago’s Food Truck plastic cutlery free, so we brought in bio degradable cornstarch forks.

Since then we have been on the hunt for the perfect eco-friendly containers to replace our plastic salad and stir-fry containers in store and we think we’ve got it! Watch this space for the launch of this change early next year!

‘Tis the Season

We would like to wish all of our Chickens a safe, prosperous and festive Christmas and New Year!

And to our suppliers and partners in business…

Thank you for another year of loyal support.

With love,

Team Tiago’s
