The company saw growth during SA’s recent lockdowns. Spar’s online shopping and delivery service will reportedly launch in selected stores in Johannesburg, Gauteng by the end of March 2022. Representatives said that they recognised the need for an online shopping offering tailored to their business model.
The service, called Spar2U, will offer both groceries and alcohol for delivery. It’s already piloting the service with some stores. There are no further details regarding the group’s ‘unique business model’ and how it’ll impact the delivery service.
