CEO Pieter Engelbrecht stated that this growth builds customer loyalty and reflects institutional progress: “With Sixty60 recently crossing the 100 million order mark, I think it’s fair to say we are making inroads in terms of our ambition, and I couldn’t be prouder of this result and more so, our 168,000 employees.” (Engelbrecht statement)

Shoprite highlighted the strategic advantage of its retail footprint, with 85% of South African households located within five kilometres of its stores. The group is expanding its omnichannel model to broaden product accessibility. (Shoprite corporate strategy)
