We are passionate about supporting and growing small local producers. We provide technical, compliance and market support for small suppliers to enter the retail environment, with a focus on black-owned and woman-owned companies.
The Shoprite Group works with suppliers to source innovative, affordable and quality products for its customers. We work with both large and small businesses, always focused on our commitment to growing the local economy and providing opportunities for emerging enterprises to enter the retail market. In 2024, our ESD programme, brought a total of 402 products to market.
Small local enterprises with an annual turnover of R5 million or less, and a one-of-a-kind product to sell, are invited to join the largest supplier network in Africa.
