This business is using the Nandos name and is selling similar products as the world famous Nandos. But they're not explictly claiming they are associated with that brand. Thailand isn't Russia or North Korea. How can they do that? I mean you can't even get away with calling a business McSushi even though McDonald's doesn't sell sushi. Get my drift? If a business never register their product or brand in Thailand, anyone can legally register that name in the same business field no problem Recently there was an 'Al-Baik' (Saudi Copy of KFC styled fried chicken) that was famous in the middle east that appeared in Bangkok but seem to not be connected to the parent franchise unless they copy everything down to the trademark logo, then the parent company would have a case, but would they bother suing a company in country they never intend to have local presence? Western brands like Taco Bell might seem to only sprung up in the last few years but the franchisee that own the name (Yum Brands) have had the business in Thailand for a lot longer than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny because have just been there for dinner tonight with my Nandos sauce bottle with me of course There is one in Siam Paragon and one in Emporium. Sure there must be more around but i've not seen them. To be fair though you can get fresh grilled chicken from almost any street vendor in Thailand and add the Nandos sauce to it and it works fine, that's what I used to do when I lived down in Phuket before. Martin I think you mean Piri Piri been to the one in Paragon a few times, I like it https://piripiriasia.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are overpriced though which likely hurt their competiveness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an opportunity for you to start a nando franchise in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not surprised though I do think their chicken has more seasoning than the new place on LK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
