Despite what the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe governor said yesterday about the Zimbabwean dollar working a lot of fast-food chains including Chicken Inn and Chicken Slice now have the permission to charge in USD because “they are tourist facilities.”
They are still required, however, to charge prices in RTGS dollars (aka ZWL) or Zimbabwean dollars. Zimbabwean dollar prices are constantly changing and below are the current ZWL $ prices at Chicken Slice.
| Item | Price in ZWL |
|---|---|
| 1 Slicer | 48.00 |
| 2 Slicer | 60.00 |
| 3 Slicer | 84.00 |
| Lion Slicer | 112.00 |
| Chicken Burger | 48.00 |
You can see the state of the Economy in the price of fast food too
The last time we looked at Chicken Slice was back in October 2019 and these were the prices:
| Menu Item | Price ZWL $ |
|---|---|
| 1 Slicer | 21.50 |
| 2 Slicer | 30.00 |
| 3 Slicer | 42.00 |
| Lion Slicer | 60.00 |
| 5 Slicer | 58.00 |
| 9 Slicer | 80.00 |
| Small Chips | 7.50 |
| Regular Fries | 9.00 |
| Medium Fries | 13.00 |
| Mega Fries | 18.00 |
| Beef Burger | 15.00 |
| Chicken Burger | 21.50 |
| Hot Dog | 9 |
- This means that the prices have more than doubled for the One Slicer
- For the other items, the price increase has been roughly 100%
- We have observed runaway food inflation this month that is likely to see the price of Chicken Slice products go up even further.
