Nando’s is one of South Africa’s most iconic global brands — bold, proudly African, and uncompromising when it comes to customer experience. With more than 1,100 restaurants across 30 countries, Nando’s requires a customer care partner that can protect its brand personality while delivering consistent, measurable CX outcomes at scale.
For over two decades, CXG (part of Digital Solutions Group) has operated as an extension of the Nando’s brand, managing non-restaurant customer interactions across South Africa and the broader IMEA region. This partnership has evolved far beyond traditional contact centre outsourcing — becoming a strategic CX enablement relationship built on trust, innovation, and results.

Managing high cost-to-serve and service recovery costs
Inconsistent visibility of customer insights across regions
Increasing expectations for fast, digital-first engagement
