History
Mang Inasal restaurant in Pulilan, Bulacan

Mang Inasal was started by Edgar "Injap" Sia II, who owned his first business at the age of twenty.[2] Sia engaged in the food business at twenty-six years of age, opening the first Mang Inasal branch in December 2003 at the Robinsons Mall Carpark in Iloilo City.[2] The restaurant was an instant success, despite stiff competition from other established grilled-food restaurants.

Mang Inasal opened its first branches in the Visayan region, later expanding to Mindanao then to Metro Manila. The company started franchising in 2005; by 2008, it had opened 23 restaurants, with ten being franchised.[3] In 2009, Mang Inasal expanded to over a hundred branches.[2]

In October 2010, 70% of Mang Inasal was acquired by Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC), for ₱3 billion ($68.8 million).[4] JFC acquired in April 2016 the remaining 30% previously belonging to Injap Investment owned by Inasal's founder.[5]
