Our Shawarmas are Special
Our Story
The story of The Shawarma Guys (TSG) is a story of resilience and determination to create the best meals for its clients, who are referred to as “family”.
Established on the 1st of February 2016 with nothing but R1,000 in their pockets, Mr Fiesta and Mr Never embarked on a journey to change the catering landscape in Africa through creating the healthiest Shawarma and meals using nothing but love and fresh ingredients.
Our Shawarmas -also known as Shuvarmas or Schwarmas- are made with Grade A pita breads freshly ordered from our suppliers, vegetables that are locally grown and topped up with mouth-watering choices of meat (beef, chicken and lamb). Are you a vegetarian? do not worry, for we make the best falafel in the world.
It should be greatly noted that all our meat is grilled and no excessive oil is used on the meat to ensure that our healthy meal standards are kept, world class.
All in all, what makes our Shawarmas Special? They are made out of love, with healthy ingredients and made by a team that is determined to put a smile to its family members… our treasured clients.

Our Roots
The food-service industry was only known for restaurant-grade food services in the past. In recent decades, the food industry grew from small home-based food businesses to wide variety of food-service approaches.
Catering service is one category of food-service industry that is becoming popular nowadays. Not only restaurants and other large food entrepreneurs can provide catering services but also home-grown cooks could yield catering deals in which they plan and prepare for the food cater on-site.
Food service provided for an event in a certain location either on food markets, hotels, function halls, offices, clubhouses, or even at home is called “Catering Service”. It includes but not limited to preparation of food and beverages, organization of the venue, serving of the food and beverages, and packed meals preparation and delivery.
The Shawarma Guys has made its reputation as popular as restaurants that provide catering services, on-site catering, events and food markets. This allows us to provide fresher, bolder, and modifiable deals and product offers. This is because we can also provide our services at any given place and location within their scope area compared to other restaurants that accept catering if the event will be held in their restaurants only.
