A Shisanyama restaurant business is a lucrative business that has been providing income for many entrepreneurs, but there are some essential factors you need to consider before you venture into this kind of business. Some of these factors include the size of your facilities; location, the kind of entertainment you will offer, your menus, and the food you intend to provide, plus your target market.

Starting a Shisa Nyama business in South Africa is very profitable. A Shisa Nyama is a place where people can buy meat and braai, and it can also offer a variety of other meals, beverages, wines and alcohol.
