designing and running an ecommerce business for growth in township economies

Research released by retail analyst Trade Intelligence earlier this year indicated that township trade brings in about R200 billion annually.

This is a staggering figure considering that high unemployment rates, poverty and crime blight South Africa’s townships. Moreover, eCommerce is growing rapidly in townships and informal settlements, with the 2023 Township CX Report finding that 60% of survey respondents either sell products and services online or know someone who does. That said, township eCommerce still faces many challenges, primarily infrastructural.

“In township economies, the consumers range from informal traders and small business owners to everyday individuals looking for affordable goods and services,” says Andy Higgins, managing director of South African eCommerce ecosystem Bob Group.

“Many of these consumers face financial constraints and limited access to digital infrastructure, so eCommerce platforms must prioritise affordability, ease of use, and trust. Some of the biggest obstacles eCommerce businesses face in township economies are limited internet access, lack of trust in digital payments, security and logistical challenges.”

Accordingly, Higgins recommends that platforms should offer:

• A wider variety of products not currently available in local townships. They should also provide goods at more competitive pricing

• Mobile-friendly interfaces that cater to users relying on low-cost smartphones

• Flexible payment options

• Affordable delivery solutions such as pickup points or courier aggregators that lower logistics costs.

He adds that businesses should consider low-data platforms that function well even with minimal internet connectivity. These platforms allow users to shop and complete transactions without heavy data costs.

Another solution is integrating mobile money platforms and educating people on using them.

“Digital literacy campaigns are essential. Partnering with educational institutions, government bodies or community centres to run workshops on eCommerce, digital

payments, and basic digital skills will help bridge the digital literacy gap. I also recommend they use local distribution channels to minimise delivery costs,” Higgins says.

Regarding affordable delivery solutions, he explains that partnerships with local couriers or logistics services that understand the nuances of township delivery can be an absolute gamechanger for township businesses. In addition, pickup points such as Bob Box can overcome the lack of formalised addresses in these areas.

RETAIL MATTERS

Likewise, security concerns can be alleviated by limiting distribution to more secure locations using a pickup point network.

A further aspect to consider is leveraging online-offline hybrid models, where customers can order online but pay or collect in person, bridging the digital divide.

Higgins says timing is critical for eCommerce entrepreneurs when expanding into township economies.

“They need to assess demand using data-driven insights to evaluate consumer interest in the products or services offered. They also need to ensure that digital and physical infrastructure can support their ecommerce operations.

“I would advise looking into mobile penetration and payment method adoption rates. Expanding too soon without considering these factors could lead to a

high failure rate. This can be achieved by piggybacking off service providers already established in the township economy.”

There are various channels for entrepreneurs in township economies to find support to establish their eCommerce platforms.

These include government initiatives like small business grants, digital skills training, and broadband expansion projects; private sector partnerships, especially with telecoms and payment providers; community-driven programmes that offer mentorship, resources, and access to ecommerce tools; and collaborating with NGOs that have a deep understanding of local needs.

Retailers and the lead-free future: Why stocking compliant paints is critical

At a workshop hosted by the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS), the National Department of Health (NDoH), and Lead Exposure Elimination Project (LEEP) on 25 November 2024, in Pretoria, the focus was clear: ensuring compliance is everyone’s responsibility. For retailers, this means understanding the regulations, stocking compliant products, and educating customers about the benefits of lead-free paint.

NEW PAINT REGULATIONS –WHAT RETAILERS NEED TO KNOW

The South African paint industry is undergoing a monumental shift with the introduction of stringent new regulations on lead content in paints, set to take effect in May 2025. These changes are not just a concern for manufacturers – they directly impact hardware retailers, who have a critical role to play in this transition. 1 2 3

The updated legislation reduces permissible lead levels in paint from 600 parts per million (ppm) to 90 ppm. Manufacturers must comply with these limits by May 2025, with an additional one year to update product labels. Non-compliant products cannot be sold, exported, or donated.

FOR RETAILERS, THIS MEANS:

• Stocking only compliant paints: It’s illegal to sell products that exceed the new lead limits

• Checking labels for compliance: Paint labels must include Global Harmonized System (GHS) compliance information, production details, and clear statements confirming lead-free status

• Avoiding risk: Selling non-compliant paint can expose your business to severe penalties, including fines, reputational damage, and possible legal action.

Ramsook Loykisoonlal from the NDoH emphasised the health risks of lead exposure, particularly for children. “Retailers are the final link in the chain to protect communities from lead’s harmful effects,” he said.

THE RETAILER’S RESPONSIBILITY

As a retailer, you are more than just a sales

channel – you are a trusted advisor to customers and a key player in promoting safer, healthier products.

HERE’S WHY YOUR ROLE MATTERS:

Protecting customers: Lead exposure has severe health consequences. By stocking only compliant products, you ensure your customers are not exposed to toxic substances. Enhancing your reputation: Being a responsible retailer builds trust and loyalty. Customers appreciate businesses that prioritise their well-being.

Avoiding liability: Selling non-compliant paints can result in fines, imprisonment, or even closure for repeat offenses. Protect your business by staying informed and compliant.

WHAT CHALLENGES LIE AHEAD?

Transitioning to lead-free paints presents challenges, particularly for smaller hardware stores:

• Supply chain management: Ensure your suppliers provide compliant paints and documentation

• Customer education: Many customers may not understand the shift or the benefits of lead-free paints. You’ll need to educate them on why these products are safer and better

• Cost considerations: Lead-free paints may initially be more expensive, and customers might need convincing about their value.

SUPPORTING THE TRANSITION

Industry organisations and resources are available to help retailers navigate these changes. At the workshop, representatives from SAPMA (South African Paint Manufacturers Association) and LEEP offered tools and guidance to support businesses in this transition.

Charlotte Potts from LEEP highlighted their

free technical support for manufacturers and distributors, emphasising the global trend towards lead-free paint: “With 94 countries enforcing lead restrictions, South Africa must embrace this change. Retailers are critical partners in making this happen.”

WHAT RETAILERS CAN DO NOW

With just a short time until enforcement, now is the time to act:

Audit your inventory: Identify any products that may not comply with the new regulations and work with suppliers to phase them out.

Train your team: Educate your staff about the new regulations and how to identify compliant products.

Engage suppliers: Ask for Compliance Declaration Certificates and updated labels for all paints.

Educate customers: Use signage and brochures to explain the benefits of leadfree paints, stressing health, and environmental advantages.

4 5 1 2 3

Promote compliant products: Highlight compliant paints in-store and online as safer, better options for your customers.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

By committing to sell only lead-free paints, hardware retailers play a vital role in creating a safer environment for future generations. As Itumeleng Mphahlele from SABS remarked, “Retailers are the frontline of change. By stocking compliant products, you are not just adhering to regulations –you are safeguarding public health.”

The transition may feel daunting, but with the right preparation and support, it’s entirely achievable. For further guidance, contact SAPMA or LEEP to access resources tailored for retailers. Stock smart, stock safe – lead-free paints are the future, and your customers deserve nothing less.

Water-saving tips from Gardena for a sustainable Garden

Water conservation is an increasingly important issue, especially as we are facing water restrictions in most parts of the country. A garden can be a significant consumer of water, but with thoughtful practices, you can cultivate a beautiful, healthy landscape while reducing your water footprint.

Here are some practical, clever watering and water-saving tips from GARDENA for gardeners who want to grow lush, thriving plants without wasting resources.

1 Water at the right time

Timing is crucial when it comes to irrigating your garden. Watering in the early morning or late evening reduces evaporation, allowing plants to absorb moisture before the sun’s heat dries it out. Avoid watering during the hottest parts of the day, as much of the water will evaporate before it reaches the roots. Watering early also helps prevent diseases that can develop from prolonged moisture on leaves. The GARDENA range of water controls schedules irrigation and can be set to suit your clients lifestyle. Choose from morning or evenings, choose days of the week or time of the day, the GARDENA water controls will take full control of your irrigation needs.

INFORM YOUR CUSTOMERS ABOUT THE SOIL MOISTURE SENSOR

The cleverly designed Soil Moisture Sensor by GARDENA can significantly reduce water wastage. The sensor measures the actual moisture level in the soil and will control the water timers by watering only when necessary. This also takes away the guesswork on whether the ground has sufficient water for your plants. When the Soil Moisture Sensor is installed together with the GARDENA Water Control, it will switch off the water timer if there is sufficient water in the soil. This is particularly important as we face water restrictions in certain areas.

3 Choose droughttolerant plants

One of the most effective ways to save water in the garden is by selecting droughttolerant plants that require less water. Native species are often the best choice since they are naturally adapted to the local climate and soil conditions. Other options include succulents, lavender, sage, and ornamental grasses. These plants are resilient in dry conditions and can add beauty to a garden while minimising water usage.

Organising plants based on their water requirements helps ensure efficient watering. By creating ‘hydrozones’, where plants with similar water needs are grouped together, gardeners can avoid overwatering those that don’t need it and ensure thirsty plants get enough moisture. This strategy reduces waste and promotes healthier plant growth.

// Keeping gardens happy and hydrated during water restrictions can be tricky. Your customers can save water by following these tips from Gardena //

2 Measure water consumption around the home and garden

Do we really know how much water is used around our garden and home? This is really a difficult task unless you have a water measuring device. The Water Meter AquaCount from GARDENA is the perfect tool to measure water consumption and to save water sustainably. This device can be connected either to the tap or directly to the end of the hose in a horizontal or vertical position. This handy product has a 4-in-1 function which allows customers to calculate water consumption per day, per season, per irrigation cycle or view the flow rate in litres per minute.

5 Install drip irrigation systems

Micro-drip irrigation is an efficient way to deliver water directly to plant roots, minimising water loss through evaporation and runoff. Micro-drip systems offer irrigation of plant rows and flower beds with pinpoint accuracy. Drip irrigation can be automated, making it a convenient option for consistent, controlled watering. The GARDENA Micro-Drip-System kits are designed for flowerpots or planter pots, giving customers the option to extend up to 15 flowerpots. Use a GARDENA Water Control to automate the irrigation using the Micro-Drip-Kits.

6 Harvest rainwater

Collecting rainwater is a natural and sustainable way to irrigate gardens. Installing a rain barrel under gutter downspouts can capture runoff from roofs, which can then be used to water plants during dry spells. Rainwater is free from the salts and chemicals found in tap water, making it healthier for plants. The GARDENA Rainwater Pump will transport water from the barrel to any watering device whether water is required in the garden or the home.

7 Practice deep, infrequent watering

Instead of watering lightly and frequently, practice deep, infrequent watering to encourage plants to develop deeper root systems. Plants with deep roots are better equipped to access moisture stored deeper in the soil and are more drought resistant. A good rule of thumb is to water until the soil is moist about six inches deep and then wait until the top inch or two of soil is dry before watering again. For this type of watering, we recommend using the GARDENA water computer with Bluetooth function. Users can control their irrigation from the comfort of their couch using the GARDENA App.

9 Maintain garden tools and irrigation systems

Regular maintenance of garden tools and irrigation system is crucial for minimising water waste. Check hoses, sprinklers and drip lines for leaks or clogs and fix any issues promptly. Even a small leak can waste a significant amount of water over time. Also, ensure sprinklers are positioned correctly to avoid

8 Recycle household water

Water waste can be further reduced by recycling "grey water" for use in the garden. This includes water from washing dishes, rinsing fruits and vegetables, or even shower water (as long as it’s free from harmful chemicals). Grey water can be used to irrigate non-edible plants, reducing the demand for fresh water.

GARDENA recommends use of its Clear or Dirty Water Pump to transport grey water to gardens.

watering driveways, sidewalks, or other nonplant areas. The GARDENA combisystem Tool Flex can assist by keeping tools ready for use in a neat and tidy manner.

Water-saving practices in the garden not only contribute to environmental sustainability but can also save your customers money

on water bills. By selecting drought-tolerant plants, watering wisely, and using tools like drip irrigation and rain barrels, customers can enjoy a vibrant, water-efficient garden that thrives in harmony with nature. Encourage customers to implement these strategies so their gardens flourish with less water and effort.

dulux let’s colour team revitalises downtown music hub

The Dulux Let’s Colour initiative continues to make a meaningful impact, and its latest project is inspiring.

The Downtown Music Hub (DTM Hub), a cornerstone of South Africa’s music heritage since 1979, has been given a vibrant new lease on life thanks to a generous donation of 1 540 litres of Dulux paint.

This cultural landmark in Johannesburg has long been a hub for artists and creatives, and the recent repainting forms part of a larger urban revitalisation project aimed at transforming the inner city into a thriving cultural precinct. The initiative reflects Dulux’s dedication to preserving heritage sites and enhancing community spaces with the transformative power of colour.

The repainting of the DTM Hub’s iconic building not only restores its visual appeal but also reinforces its role as a beacon of creativity in Johannesburg. The refreshed façade stands as a testament to the importance of community, the arts, and the rich cultural heritage the DTM Hub represents

“We believe that colour has the power

to inspire, unite, and uplift,” says Nathalie Sweeney, marketing director – Dulux sub Sahara Africa – “This project embodies that

philosophy, and we are honoured to play a role in creating a brighter future for Johannesburg.”

The Let’s Colour initiative has consistently demonstrated how something as simple as paint can ignite change, and this project is no exception. By preserving and beautifying a cornerstone of South Africa’s music scene, Dulux is contributing to the city’s ongoing transformation into a vibrant and culturally significant urban space.

A heartfelt thanks goes out to everyone who contributed to making this project a reality. Together, we’re painting not just walls but the future of a community that cherishes its artistic legacy.

With the completion of this revitalisation effort, the DTM Hub once again stands as a proud symbol of Johannesburg’s enduring creative spirit-proof that a little colour can go a long way.

Interior design partnership set to reshape South African interiors

REHAU South Africa, a leader in polymer-based solutions headquartered in Germany, has partnered with The Sourcing Lab, a dynamic Cape Town-based design studio and showroom that curates materials for architectural and interior design professionals. Through this collaboration, the South African market now has greater access to high-end, innovative, and sustainable design solutions under one roof.

The Sourcing Lab, founded by creative director Johanna van der Merwe, offers a unique platform for designers, architects, and homeowners to access a curated range of materials, both locally and internationally sourced. With its focus on creating impactful spaces, the studio’s approach aligns with REHAU’s mission to offer high-quality, cutting-edge materials that combine aesthetic appeal with sustainable functionality.

A NICHE MARKET OPPORTUNITY

REHAU’s partnership with The Sourcing Lab is based on the showroom’s ability to reach a specialised, high-end market. The Sourcing Lab’s clientele largely consists of luxury home builders, architects, and developers working on exclusive projects, from hotels to residential and office developments. The curated selection of materials on display allows clients to visualise the integration of these products into their designs, simplifying the design process while maintaining a high level of quality and sophistication.

“We see this partnership as a key opportunity to introduce our unique range of materials, like our crystal range and flip door systems, to an exciting and creative South African market,” says Boitumelo ThipeMogami, marketing manager at REHAU. “The Sourcing Lab’s collaborative spirit allows us to showcase our products in ways that elevate the design potential of their projects.”

CURATED DESIGN EXPERIENCE

The Sourcing Lab’s approach is rooted in collaboration, where designers, architects and homeowners have the opportunity to interact directly with the materials. While The Sourcing Lab provides access to an impressive array of products, it is more than

just a showroom – it’s a collaborative space that encourages fresh design thinking.

“The Sourcing Lab is a space for inspired design; it’s about guiding designers and clients through the design process in a way that makes sense,” said van der Merwe.

“Having REHAU on board is a fantastic asset for us because they bring truly innovative products that we believe will stimulate our clients and transform their designs.”

One of the standout products in this collaboration is REHAU’s RAUVISIO crystal range – a distinctive smart glass product available for the first time in South Africa.

This unique material, alongside others from REHAU, is stimulating new design possibilities as architects and designers integrate them into both residential and commercial projects.

AN INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATION FOR LOCAL DESIGN

As more international brands begin to focus on Africa as a key market, this partnership reflects a growing trend of global companies recognising the potential of South African design.

“With the challenges in European markets due to recent geopolitical events, many

brands are turning to Africa as the next big development frontier,” said van der Merwe. “South Africa is a gateway into the broader African market, and we’re excited to see how local designers will respond to REHAU’s products,” added van der Merwe.

BEYOND TRADITIONAL DESIGNS

The partnership also offers exciting prospects for the future of kitchen and interior design in South Africa. With trends moving towards more integrated and experimental designs, REHAU’s products are helping to redefine spaces by offering sleek, seamless finishes. These materials are pushing the boundaries of traditional interior design, with a particular focus on creating designs that are not only beautiful but also highly functional.

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE

This partnership marks the start of a long-term commitment to strengthen the South African design industry. Working together, both companies aim to support the growth of local design talent by offering access to high-quality, internationalstandard products.

LUBRICANTS

fuchs offers complete lubricant solutions for hybrid vehicles

As mobility continues to evolve, the market is slowly switching from combustion engine to electric power. Bridging between these two technologies, hybrid powered vehicles combine both combustion and electric power.

“These are an increasingly popular choice of vehicle in South Africa as they offer dual benefits and provide a transition for consumers,” comments Hayley Arnesen, national sales manager, Automotive Aftermarket at FUCHS LUBRICANTS SOUTH AFRICA.

The FUCHS BluEV Technology range builds the bridge between existing and new products and their application in conventional vehicles with combustion engines as well as hybrid vehicles. Selected engine oils, transmission oils and service fluids from FUCHS will be labelled with BluEV Technology, explains Wiedaad Emeran, Automotive Product Manager at FUCHS.

“Pure electric vehicles (EVs) are not expected to take off in South Africa for a few years, which is why hybrid technology is ideal for our market,” adds Arnesen. FUCHS is positioning itself to take advantage of this sector as it grows and is already offering advanced products for this space.

The interaction between the combustion engine and electric motor in hybrid vehicles, as well as the frequent start-stop behaviour, place new and additional demands on the engine oil. FUCHS’ BluEV Technology engine oils address these exact requirements and ensure full protection against wear caused by this arduous

duty cycle. Three premium performance engine oils for combustion powered vehicles can also be used in selected hybrid vehicles, depending on the OEM specifications.

TITAN GT1 FLEX 5 SAE 0W-20 BluEV Technology is a premium performance engine oil with XTL technology. It is specifically designed for highly stressed downsized engines with maximum power output, providing extreme fuel-economy characteristics and reduced carbon emissions. Other features are excellent cold starting behaviour, very fast oil circulation, and outstanding performance reserves.

TITAN GT1 FLEX C23 SAE 5W-30 BluEV

Technology is a premium performance fueleconomy engine oil with optimum cold start ability and outstanding performance reserves. It is ideal for modern passenger cars and light commercial vehicles with or without extended service intervals. In addition, it is applicable in hybrid vehicles of different manufacturers such as Audi or Mercedes-Benz.

TITAN GT1 PRO C-3 SAE 5W-30 BluEV

Technology is a premium performance engine oil for modern cars and vans. It has been especially developed for BMW, VW, Porsche, and Mercedes-Benz vehicles with exhaust gas aftertreatment and turbochargers. Features include excellent cold-start properties, low oil consumption, and reduced emissions.

As vehicle manufacturers rely on the same or related designs of automatic, continuously variable, dual-clutch or even axle transmissions for hybrid vehicles, gear oils needed are often based on already established specifications. FUCHS’ BluEV Technology gear oils are therefore suitable for most modern hybrid vehicles.

TITAN ATF 6400 BluEV Technology is a

premium performance automatic transmission fluid (ATF) with reduced viscosity, specifically formulated for automatic transmissions of Japanese, European, and American manufacturers. It is licenced according to DEXRON VI and MERCON LV and is suitable for use in hybrid applications from various manufacturers.

TITAN ATF 6008 BluEV Technology has reduced viscosity to optimise the performance of specified six- and eight-speed ZF automatic transmissions, including hybrid applications. TITAN ATF 6009 BluEV Technology optimises the performance of specified eight- and ninespeed ZF automatic transmissions, including hybrid applications.

Due to their modern technological status, newly developed hybrid vehicles require service fluids that meet the latest requirements. Service fluids include brake fluids, coolants, and power steering fluids. BluEV Technology brake fluids offer the best protection against steam bubble formation due to their high wet and dry boiling points.

Partnerships and insights take centre stage at Elite Star Trading breakfast

Elite Star Trading (EST) hosted its highly anticipated annual year-end Supplier Breakfast at Emperors Palace in December 2024, gathering key stakeholders from its Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) and Hardware divisions.

The event highlighted a year of resilience and growth, expressed gratitude to suppliers, and offered valuable insights into the company’s future direction.

Master of Ceremonies, Mohamed Varachia, set the tone for the morning with a warm and engaging welcome, introducing a lineup of thought-provoking speakers who reflected on the year’s successes and challenges while casting a vision for 2025.

BUSINESS UPDATES:

EST’S CONTINUED GROWTH

Brian Williams and Rob Suttle, executives for the FMCG and Hardware divisions respectively, delivered an insightful overview of their divisions:

• Brian Williams (FMCG Division):

EST’s food division, launched in 2007, operates on a flat structure designed

to empower and support smaller stores, enabling them to compete effectively with major retail chains.

Boasting a network of 408 stores, the division has achieved consistent annual growth and continues to strengthen its footprint across the market.

• Rob Suttle (Hardware Division):

Celebrating its 12th year since inception in 2012, EST Hardware membership has grown to an impressive 1 256 stores. Its innovative structure benefits members equally and the model helps independent retailers remain competitive. Despite industry economic challenges in 2023, the division rebounded with encouraging growth in 2024, positioning itself optimistically for 2025, which Suttle has dubbed “The Year of Hardware.”

BUILDING TOGETHER WITH GIFT OF THE GIVERS

Imtiaz Sooliman, founder of the humanitarian organisation Gift of the Givers, captivated the audience with moving stories about the power of compassion and collaboration, making a statement with the quote: “We are stronger together if we do not forget the poor.”

From responding to global disasters such as tornadoes and fires to addressing grassroots issues in South Africa, Sooliman shared how small acts of kindness can create significant ripples of impact. He recounted the story of a Mossel Bay resident who rediscovered hope after a personal tragedy, thanks to Gift of the Givers’ inclusive efforts. Another story highlighted their drought relief initiative, which provided boreholes, feed for livestock, and food parcels for farmworkers and owners.

With 175 feeding centres nationally and countless boreholes established to mitigate water shortages, Sooliman illustrated how meaningful collaboration can transform lives. He urged suppliers to support these efforts through donations or preferential pricing and left the audience with a profound message: “You can only sleep in one bed and drive one car at a time – share what you have.”

EST reinforced its commitment to humanitarian causes by announcing a generous R6 million donation to Gift of the Givers.

EVENTS

EST BREAKFAST

Drawing comparisons to corporate giants like Pick n Pay, which listed Boxer as a standalone entity in November, to compete in informal settlements, Mighti underscored the success of EST’s model over its 17-year journey.

He emphasised that thriving in the informal sector requires understanding nuances that ‘ivory tower’ corporates often overlook.

He attributed EST’s success to three key principles:

• Connection: Understanding local community needs, such as selling half loaves of bread or single eggs

• Compassion: Building trust through relationships, offering customers flexibility, such as deferred payment options

• Creativity: Supporting innovative products overlooked by larger retailers, fostering innovation in underserved markets.

These principles have enabled EST’s independent retailers to consistently outperform their larger competitors, even in challenging conditions.

’STUCK

IN THE MIDDLE WITH GNU’

Political correspondent Stephen Grootes offered a sharp analysis of South Africa’s political landscape. He discussed the implications of the recent elections and the formation of a Government of National Unity (GNU). Grootes explored how the shifting political climate could impact businesses and communities, encouraging attendees to remain informed and adaptable in the face of uncertainty.

CLOSING REMARKS

Louis Greeff, CEO of EST, brought the event to a close with heartfelt thanks to the speakers, suppliers, and attendees. He reaffirmed EST’s dedication to empowering independent retailers, fostering growth, and building strong partnerships across both the FMCG and Hardware sectors.

The breakfast was a powerful demonstration of EST’s commitment to community, innovation, and shared success, leaving attendees inspired and energised for the year ahead.
