QUALITY

Since the first opening in January 2017, Zack’s Fried Chicken grows its uniqueness by caring about the ingredients chosen to make your meals, but also by its will of providing quality of the product and impeccable service to you.

We seek to offer you the best, and this starts with executing procedures that respect the requirements of national regulations. We establish numerous inspections from the choice of raw materials to your consumption. Traceability, bill of specifications, multiple controls… Zack’s works continuously, and in a joint effort with its suppliers, to guarantee food security and use irreproachable ingredients in our recipes.

In Zack’s, our raw materials are of course selected based on quality. Those high expectations regarding this pushes us to work hand in hand with local suppliers who provide us the best of their production.

Good recipes are made with good products, and this is the reason why Zack’s Fried Chicken applies a strict control over the material that are used in its kitchens. Every day, Zack’s and its suppliers commit to guaranteeing food security at any stage by respecting safety norms and technical requirements.

Each one of those quality standards in our restaurants are submitted to ACERTA Middle East for complete external controls on hygiene and quality, as well as being controlled internally with temperature, “Best before” dates and other checkings for a constant quality.

NUTRITION

Zack’s Fried Chicken has its heart set on offering better and tastier food to you. Efforts to bring more balance in your meals have been completed thanks to actions directly targeted on the nutritional values of items in the menu.

To match the needs of everyone, we also introduced a kids menu in addition to regular menus – providing a meal of a size adapted to children’s needs and containing a juice instead of soda.

TALENTS

With hundreds of colleagues working for the brand, and the opening of new branches every year, recruitment and training play a major part in Zack’s.

Since the beginning, the Zack’s expertise rests upon the transmission of knowledge in food service: hygiene, customer services, security and quality. This knowledge is passed on from the first day of every worker, regardless his or her post.
