History
Chilango was founded in 2007 by Eric Partaker and Dan Houghton, who met while working at Skype Technologies.[1]
In August 2014, Chilango raised £2 million through a mini bond issue on crowdfunding platform Crowdcube, styled by the company as 'Burrito bonds'.[2]
In April 2016, Chilango opened its 11th branch and first outside of London, in Manchester.[3]
In October 2018, Chilango opened its 12th branch, in Birmingham.[4]
Chilango entered administration in July 2020.[5] The chain was bought out of administration in August 2020 by the investment group, RD Capital Partners.[6]
