[edit] History

Claudio Rosales and Lina Lacayo de Rosales initiated the business, in Nicaragua, in 1959 with the sale of processed crude chicken, a market of which dominated 70% a long time.[1] The first restaurant was opened in 1958 in the center of old Managua[2]

[edit] Expansion

Pollo Tip Top began its expansion in 2004 due to the creation of its tax exemption. The firsts were bought in the cities of Estelí and Chinandega, in Nicaragua, but their goal for 2005 was to arrive at Honduras, Panama, Costa Rica, and El Salvador. [3]
