Massmart is an African retail and wholesale group with widely recognised and differentiated formats, represented in over 300 stores in 8 sub-Saharan countries. We have leading market shares in the general merchandise, liquor, home improvement and wholesale food markets. Our key foundations of high volume, low cost, responsible business and operational excellence enable our price leadership.
Builders is helping South Africans plan, build, repair and renovate with greater confidence through its latest six-month Price Lock campaign, which is currently running until 31 December.
South African shoppers will be able to access savings of up to 50% on selected food, electronics, appliances, DIY and home improvement products when Massmart’s annual Halfway Day takes place across Makro, Game and Builders, with Makro and Game deals running from 25 to 30 June 2026 and Builders’ online-only deals available from 22 to 30 June 2026.
Makro recently brought together a group of their key marketplace sellers in Johannesburg for a dedicated Seller Engagement Session aimed at strengthening collaboration and supporting growth across its expanding online marketplace.
Electronic waste (e-waste) remains South Africa’s fastest-growing waste stream, posing a pressing environmental challenge that is compounded by the limited number of safe disposal mechanisms available.
Saving our customers money so they can live better.
Our aim is to build the strongest and healthiest diversified retail group with the best long-term prospects on the continent of Africa. We believe that being socially and environmentally responsible is fundamental to achieving this and creating long-term stakeholder value.
We couldn’t serve our customers without the continued support of our greatest asset: our associates. We’re proud to support them by offering jobs at all levels – and investing in them through training and skills development so that all jobs lead to careers.
Our suppliers help us deliver our purpose to save customers money so they can live better. We work with these companies, along with NGOs and government leaders, to ensure that everything we sell is produced responsibly.
