Clothing, food and all that goes along with elegance and health are what this company offers. Woolworths opened its doors for the first time in 1931, in Cape Town, South Africa. This was a time of the great depression, yet this store survived and even thrived through it all to become one of the most prominent household names in South Africa. Even from this day, Woolworths offered superior quality. Their product ranges were made available at affordable prices, without compromising any of their quality. These attributes are partially responsible for the great success of the company in South Africa, making it one of the most prominent retail chains.
Even though the name and concept idea of the company originated from Woolworths Australia, the two companies do not have any other ties or associations. In 1934 the second store was opened in Durban, with the financial aid provided by Elie Susman, and in 1935 Johannesburg and Port Elizabeth also saw the opening of their store branches. From here they grew and success followed.
This company has grown over the years quite exponentially, going from one store to over 400. Stretching from South Africa all the way to the Middle East, with new ventures in New Zealand and Australia. When originally opened this store provided retail along with financial services to those within the middle and upper-income sectors. Today this retail store boasts a wider selection of products and services including homeware, beauty products, food as well as their original products of clothing and financial services.
