Introducing the Nando’s Siya Sauce

Nando’s officially unveiled its latest collab with Springbok captain and national treasure Siya Kolisi on Saturday, 31 October, at the opening of its new bespoke restaurant in Stellenbosch. The result? The limited-edition Siya Sauce, available in Nando’s restaurants nationwide from 3 November 2026.
