Checkers Sixty60 continues to go from strength to strength despite increased competition. Melville Douglas’ Lieketseng Pitse revealed some of the reasons how it has managed this.
Checkers Sixty60 have defied all market sceptics, including those who thought retail could not be disrupted in South Africa and others who assumed its popularity would decline post-pandemic.
Previously, it was thought that retail in South Africa would slowly evolve without many dramatic changes to increasingly penetrate lower-income segments with enhanced efficiency, driving growth. Given Shoprite’s management team’s clear desire to increase Checkers’ small-format stores and FreshX offering, the delivery platform will continue its incredible growth path.
The concept of Sixty60, when launched – “for customers to order groceries in sixty seconds and have them delivered in sixty minutes – appeared to be overly ambitious at the time. Not only does this improve Sixty60’s delivery times, but it is also beginning to bear fruit in terms of enhanced product offerings and reduced operating costs.
