The franchise has restaurants in 15 municipalities all over Finland.[4] The restaurant in Jyväskylä closed down in February 2014 when its owner Maizen Oy filed for bankruptcy, but almost four months later a new restaurant was opened by a new owner.[5][6]

The franchise serves hamburgers,[7] steaks and tortillas[8] among other items. Like other franchises, Pancho Villa also hosts theme weeks, such as the Burger weeks.[9] The franchise was named after the famous Mexican revolutionary leader Pancho Villa.[10]
