INTRODUCTION
Mang Inasal's authentic fusion of traditional Filipino cuisine with the dine-in
concept. Famous for its native-style and “nuot-sarap” Chicken Inasal with its
pioneering “unlimited rice”, M a n g Inasal quickly won the hearts of its customers
with its distinctively Pinoy stamp- grilling and special marinade made out of local
secret spices.
The restaurant was an instant success, opening close to thirty branches in just
three years. By 2005, confident of the stability and brand recall of the business,
he opened M a n g Inasal for franchising, concentrating his efforts in Visayas and
Mindanao where Inasal is most popular. Franchise offers for Luzon soon followed.
It all started with a Vision. Edgar “Injap” Sia, at the age of twenty six,
grabbed the opportunity to lease a 250 square meter space at the Robinson’s
Mall Carpark-Iloilo in December 2003.
It was there that M a n g Inasal, Hiligaynon for Mr. Barbeque, was born.
Early on, he learned the importance of following your instincts, taking risks,
strategizing, negotiating, and motivating yourself and your people. H e also knew
that the Filipino barbeque quick service restaurant category still had the potential
for growth. H e started a business that had the potential for nationwide expansion.
With the support of his family, he embarked on a journey that changed his life
forever.
