Oporto is one of the most instantly recognizable brands in the Australian quick service food industry, with a network of customer-centric Franchise Partners dedicated to creating vibrant food experiences. Our philosophy is simple – provide delicious food and treat everyone like family. Established in 1986, Oporto was founded on creating an authentic Portuguese taste just up the road from Bondi Beach. People could sense that it was something special, and word quickly spread.

At Oporto, food and family are the driving forces behind everything we do.. We strive to make a difference in the world, and bring happiness to our big Oporto familia.  We’re a home-grown Australian icon from humble beginnings. Teenagers from the 1980s will remember rocking up to our beachside shop, mesmerised by chicken grilled over an open flame with the juicy aroma of Portuguese spices filling the air. Nearly four decades later, we’re still cooking up the same intensely delicious flavours in over 180 stores throughout Australia, New Zealand and beyond. A relentless focus on authentic, fresh, flavoursome Portuguese food coupled with a youthful, fun experience, Oporto has carved a unique place for itself in the Australian food industry.

And the good news is that it’s only getting better. Innovation is what the next few years are all about in the Oporto world. So we’re looking for passionate, talented, hard-working people to come on board as franchisees, because Australia just can’t get enough of Oporto!

We’re a proud familia with two iconic Australian sister brands: Red Rooster and Chicken Treat. The three of us sit under the umbrella of Craveable Brands – a company that’s just as enthusiastic about delicious food and family values as we are. Craveable Brands has an impressive team that’s ready to support their Oporto network day and night. With the right tools, an excellent training program and teams of experts on your side, your dream of owning your own business is ready to come true.

Oporto is in a period of rapid growth. Aussies love our style and they can’t get enough of our food, so we need to grow our franchise familia to keep up with demand! We’ve identified dozens of perfect locations for new restaurants, and now we need some new franchise parceiros (partners) to join the team.
