The Chingali delivers the proven 2.8m x 1.8m format with a lean, no-frills specification: two gas stoves, two chips fryers, two food warmers, two griller plates with mesh, a small sink, prep table, and three serving hatches. It is the trailer for operators who know their menu — chips, russians, kotas, grills — and want maximum equipment per rand.

From R44,750 in Chromadek or R54,750 in double-panel sheeting, finished in your colour with free roadworthy papers and a 20L water bottle holder, the Chingali keeps startup costs contained without compromising the cooking line. Like every Trailored build it comes from our NRCS-registered Randburg factory with a 12-month warranty and registration handled before delivery.
