The Competition Tribunal has approved Shoprite’s acquisition of 46 retail grocery stores from Massmart. These include supermarkets, wholesalers, and liquor stores.

Shoppers leave the Shoprite store.

In line with the advice of the Competition Commission, the Competition Tribunal instructed that Massmart sell ten retail outlets to independent retailers, especially those from historically disadvantaged backgrounds. Regardless of this, it’s believed that where Massmart fell short in running the enterprises profitably, Shoprite will likely do a better job.
