After the Garcia Family returned from Spain, their minds (and taste buds) kept wandering back to the mouthwatering churros they enjoyed just about every day. They decided there and then that South Africans should not live without churros and Paquito’s was born!

In 2015 Gus and Cheri Garcia launched Paquito’s Treatery pop-up and started to attend markets in Johannesburg and Pretoria. It wasn’t long before they had to expand their team as South African’s craved for more churros!

Gus and Cheri have a very hands-on approach and their passion for churros and energy for life reflects in the brand. In 2017 they opened the doors to their factory and launched Paquito’s wholesale – spreading their love for churros and sharing the delicious products with other South African businesses.
