In a country that loves its chicken takeaways, one Kiwi brand - Crazy Mo’s has been built on a simple idea but tasty idea! Chicken can be crispy, golden - packed with flavour and oven-baked!

As demand grows for lighter fast-food options across New Zealand, as highlighted by coverage in the NZ Herald Eatwell section, Crazy Mo’s is stepping forward as Aotearoa’s oven baked chicken pioneer.

A Kiwi Brand Built Differently

Crazy Mo’s began with a clear goal - to create oven baked chicken that delivers everything people love about classic chicken takeaways, with the same crispy coating, juicy centre and full-on flavour Kiwis crave.

Crispy outside. Tender inside. Seasoned to perfection with Cosmo's Seasonings!

From day one, the focus has been flavour first. The team developed a signature coating system designed specifically for oven baking, proving you do not need deep frying to get that golden crunch.

“We’re proud to bring Kiwis oven baked chicken without compromising on taste,” says Andy Campbell, Crazy Mo’s Culinary Developer. “We saw an opportunity to offer something different in the chicken takeaways space. Lighter. Smarter. Still seriously satisfying.”
