Multinational Mexican food franchise is planning to open Leamington branch

The company which was founded in Australia and has branches there and in New Zealand, Ireland, the US and the UK, says this will create 180 new jobs across the new sites.

The company says its development agents, James Fleck, Michelle Jelfs and Sarah Preston, will lead growth in the West Midlands, covering Gloucestershire, Warwickshire, West Midlands County and Worcestershire.

Development will initially focus on larger towns and cities within the region but Leamington and Startford-upon-Avon are also on the list.

James said: “We’re incredibly excited to join the ‘Zam Fam’ at such a pivotal stage in the brand’s growth.

"Having worked within the hospitality industry for many years, it is clear to me that Zambrero truly stands out - from its fresh, high-quality Mexican food and modern restaurant design, to its positive culture and clear sense of purpose.

"What really inspires us is the Plate 4 Plate initiative, which goes far beyond being a brand differentiator.

“It’s a mission we feel personally connected to, and we’re proud to be a part of a business that gives back.

"When we consider all these things, we really think we’ve hit on something special.

"As we keep telling everyone we speak to, there’s just something about Zambrero.”

Since its 2021 launch in London, Zambrero now has 14 restaurants across the UK, located in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Reading, Essex and Glasgow.
