Mr. Michael Gonzalez brings extensive culinary expertise and has successfully established numerous F&B brands and companies, including Chipori Restaurant, World Coffee Philippines, and BigZ Burger. “I conceived the business concept in November 2021 and immediately began developing recipes. I invited my friends and family to taste my newly crafted burger recipes. To my delight, they unanimously praised the flavors, suggesting it could become the next iconic burger brand in the Philippines. I named it ‘BigZ Burger’ for several reasons: first, to ensure easy recall of a simple, memorable brand name. Secondly, to honor our sons, fondly known as the ‘Zboys’ (Zach, Zayn, Zeus, and Zion), as a testament to their blessings in my life. Third, introducing affordable, high-quality burgers to our community, emphasizing BigZ Burger as the first to combine beef patty and crispy chicken with coleslaw and unique sauces. Lastly, to demonstrate that premium burgers can be enjoyed at reasonable prices”.Together with his fiancée Shein and family, Mr. Michael Gonzalez introduced the BigZ Burger menu at their first restaurant, Chipori, in Marikina City in 2021. Recognizing its potential and market fits, they decided to establish a distinct identity for the burger menu. In February 2022, they opened the first BigZ Burger branch, and by 2023, after carefully creating structure they had fully executed their expansion plan, reaching every barangay in Marikina City. And since then, it has opened more stores in different areas in CALABARZON, with more branches lined up to open in the coming weeks. It has become one of the fastest-growing food franchises in the country with almost 50 branches. BigZ Burger showcases a variety of affordable and premium options, each featuring our signature unique sauces. These include the B1T1 Crispy Chicken Sandwich priced at Php 98.00, the B1T1 BBQ Burger for Php 48.00, B1T1 Classic Beef Burger with coleslaw for Php 58.00, and B1T1 Classic Cheese Burger with coleslaw for Php 78.00.

BigZ Burger is now offering franchise opportunities in CALABARZON and Metro Manila, and seeking Master Franchisees for select areas in neighboring provinces. “We aim to expand systematically, starting with one municipality at a time, and invite partners to join us in sharing our successful business model.” Mr. Michael has been steadily making waves in the F&B industry since February 2020, navigating through the challenges of the pandemic era and now aiming to scale his brands nationwide.
