A Restaurant and Supermarket Crossover
This design combines two very familiar parts of the UK food landscape: the specific flavour of Nando’s Peri-Peri chicken and the specific format of a Morrisons Market Street pizza.
Market Street is the branding Morrisons applies to its in-store fresh counter ranges, aiming for a deli-style feel. The pizzas from this line typically come on a thin cardboard base, shrink-wrapped and sold from the chiller, creating the impression of a product made fresh in-store. This mockup applies that exact supermarket aesthetic to one of the UK’s most recognisable restaurant brands.
A Plausible Format
While Nando’s has a huge retail presence through its sauces, marinades, and even crisps, a pizza would be a new category. The move is, however, a well-trodden path. High street restaurant chains like Pizza Express, Zizzi, and Franco Manca all have successful ranges in the chilled aisles, making this brand extension feel entirely logical.
The chosen format is a thin stonebaked base, a supermarket staple that avoids the complexities of deep-pan or sourdough. It’s a straightforward proposition: a familiar base with a famous topping. The caption that ran with the image kept it simple: “Nando’s Peri-Peri Chicken Pizza! I need one of these tonight!”
