Although Shoprite Group stole a march on many of South Africa's retailers in on-demand online grocery delivery during the Covid-19 lockdowns, Pick n Pay has a clear plan to make up lost ground and compete aggressively for market share. Enrico Ferigolli, who co-founded the liquor delivery app Bottles – which was later acquired by Pick n Pay to form the basis of its online shopping push with asap! – joins the TechCentral Show to unpack the journey Pick n Pay is on, and how the e-commerce market is likely to develop in the coming years. Ferigolli tells TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod about: * Why and how technology has become fundamental to modern retail; * The launch of Bottles and what led to the Pick n Pay acquisition; * The dynamics of on-demand delivery and what it takes to be a successful player; * How Pick n Pay is working to convince people to try asap! for their grocery needs; * The role of AI (and AI agents) in future omnichannel retail environments; How online shopping is likely to change the way Pick n Pay designs its physical stores; * Pick n Pay's relationship with Takealot Group, and where that alliance is headed; * Pick n Pay's plans to expand into townships and other underserved markets with on-demand deliveries; and * The threat posed by international e-commerce companies that don't have a presence in South Africa but which ship goods to local consumers. It's a great interview about the future of e-commerce in South Africa – be sure not to miss it! TechCentral
Pieter Engelbrecht, CEO of South Africa's largest supermarket group Shoprite Holdings, is interviewed by Jewel Kiriungi, BBC Africa Business Correspondent. His company employs 163,000 people, the largest in the country's private sector, with three thousand stores across nine African countries. Pieter Engelbrecht describes to Jewel how he believes the company helps people on low incomes by producing food at prices they can afford, in a country where a quarter of all South Africa children don't eat enough protein. He says they have a purpose to help people survive. He talks about the success of the company's loyalty card programme and how everything they do is data driven. He says he sees potential to grow the business in South Africa and beyond despite Shoprite having closed its operation in several parts of the continent, including Nigeria and Kenya.(Image: Pieter Engelbrecht, Credit: Getty Images/Bloomberg)

New Beacon vegan joint already has a following Despite running a pizza place, Mickey Dwyer is not sick of pizza. "I don't get to eat enough of my pizza, actually," he said while sliding a sausage and peppers pie into the oven at Trixie's, the pizzeria he owns and operates. "I keep selling out and then I'm bummed that I don't have any left for myself." Dwyer sells out despite a lack of advertising and his pizzeria being impossible to stumble upon. It's located in the rear of 144 Main St. in Beacon, next to a semi-secret soccer field. Its unlikely location keeps the rent cheap, which comes in handy since it took Dwyer and friends a year to get the former guitar repair shop up to code before he could open. Trixie's, named after his family's late chihuahua, had a soft opening in April that went so well Dwyer's never had a chance to have an official opening. Pizza orders open online on Wednesdays in 20-minute slots for Thursday, Friday and Saturday pickup. They fill quickly; Dwyer can only fit four pizzas at a time in the oven. "I like the time slots so I can tell how many pizzas to make," he said. "There's less food waste. And the pizza is just gonna come out better. I understand that everyone in Beacon wants to eat at 6:15, but if I made pizza for everybody at 6:15 then some are going to be undercooked. This way I can give every pizza the same amount of attention." There's one other thing that makes Trixie's unique: Everything is vegan. "I can't use 2 pounds of cheese as a crutch to cover up 'mid' pizza," he said. The sausage is made of a meat substitute; Dwyer adds sage, garlic and fennel. The mozzarella is cashew-based, and what looks like parmesan is a potato starch-based substitute that's not available in stores. Even the hot honey is vegan, made from apples and chilis. If potato-starch cheese doesn't sound appealing, rest assured that Dwyer, who grew up in Wisconsin, is picky about cheese. "All the cheese that the New York pizzerias use is made in Juda, Wisconsin," he said. "You might not think we know a lot about pizza in Wisconsin, but we know a lot about cheese." Dwyer himself isn't vegan but guesses most of his customers aren't either. "Vegans make up less than 6 percent of the population, so you're going to go under unless you make something that appeals to everyone," he said. Beacon's vegan doughnut shop, Peaceful Provisions, is an example of this. "Nobody cares that it's vegan - they just care that it's a delicious doughnut." Before he had the Main Street space, Dwyer used the commercial kitchen at Peaceful Provisions to make 100 pounds of dough on Wednesdays. He said the Saturday doughs, with their longer ferment, had more complex flavors, although he admitted he may be the only one who noticed the difference. With all the dough now made at Trixie's, the dough for each pizza gets a two-day cold ferment. "That means every pizza takes three days start to finish," he said. "Everybody thinks that pizza is fast food, but good pizza is slow food." Dwyer began making pizza as a hobby soon after he moved to Beacon in 2016. Around the same time, he and his wife began eating less meat and dairy, and creating a vegan pizza that didn't taste like a vegan pizza recipe became an obsession. Dwyer bought an old coffee trailer and sold pizzas from his driveway. At Trixie's, Dwyer is working on building a small outdoor patio and has applied for a beer and wine license. He's also finally with a food distributor so he no longer must drive back and forth to Adams and ShopRite for ingredients. This month he hired his first employee. "She'll be taking orders and talking to people," he said. "I was spreading myself too thin. I'd be talking to customers and answering their questions, and the pizzas would be in the back, burning. Now I'll just be able to focus on the pizzas. I can make more, and I can make them faster." Trixie's Pizza, behind 144 Main St. in Beacon, is open 4 to 9 p.m. on Thursday and 4 to 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday...

Spar Group is determined to play a significant role in the on-demand grocery delivery space in South Africa despite coming from behind, its omnichannel executive for Southern Africa has told TechCentral. Speaking to the TechCentral Show, Blake Raubenheimer took the publication's editor, Duncan McLeod, through the retailer's plan to compete directly with the likes of Shoprite Holdings' Sixty60, which gained an early market lead during the Covid lockdowns. Spar has every intention of becoming a meaningful player in app-based on-demand deliveries, according to Raubenheimer, who unpacked the retailer's plan to gain market share in the increasingly competitive but fast-expanding segment with Spar2U. South Africa's grocery sector has become increasingly competitive as price-conscious consumers look for value, convenience and distinctive products. Shoprite and Woolworths are keeping their rivals on their toes as they continue to sign up customers. Pick n Pay, which is also coming from behind, is aggressively targeting the space, too. In this episode of the TechCentral Show, Raubenheimer discusses: * How Spar's business model – the vast majority of stores are run by franchisees – has complicated its move into the on-demand grocery game, and how it's working to turn this to its advantage; * How Spar is working to convince consumers to try Spar2U over other on-demand services; * The group's broader omnichannel strategy, where the retailer is positioned in the market, where it wants to get to, and how it plans to do it; * Its focus on the township and rural markets through partnerships with companies like KasiD and Delivery Ka Speed – and why it's important; Spar's partnership with Uber Eats; * How Spar's SAP enterprise software implementation in KwaZulu-Natal went awry and how it impacted the retailer; and * What Spar is working on from a technology perspective. Don't miss a fascinating discussion about how technology is transforming the retail industry in South Africa. TechCentral

Welcome back to the Brand X Podcast! In this vintage episode from May 11, 2016, hosts John Jamingo and Deuce dive into a hilarious and relatable mix of everyday annoyances and nostalgic observations. Kick back as John shares his “grumpy old man” adventures, from enduring parking lot gridlock on Mother's Day—complete with two clueless security guards—to unleashing the power of Twitter when customer service falls flat. Deuce adds his flavor, reflecting on how social media has transformed how we talk, connect, and—sometimes—argue while recounting his reluctant adoption of smartphones and the epic autocorrect fail story you'll have to hear to believe.The duo also riffs on the modern decline of discourse, swapping stories about political clashes on Facebook, debates about personal boundaries, and their gripes with pushy solar salesmen. In addition to the laughs, they get nostalgic about how things used to be done—letters to the editor, face-to-face disagreements, and finding common ground even when opinions differ.Whether you're struggling with autocorrect, sick of traffic jams, or embracing your inner grumpiness, this episode will make you laugh and maybe even nod in agreement.

One of PJ Monte's early sales pitches startled a woman so much that she clutched her purse. A few weeks later, PJ's tomato sauce was on the shelves of her husband's influential grocery store. It's one of dozens of stories that PJ, a streetwise, fedora-wearing entrepreneur, has about the development of Monte's Fine Foods, makers of premium, clean label pasta and sauces. Monte's launched in 2020 and is an homage to PJ's family, which has a long history in the restaurant and hospitality industries. A former clothing designer, PJ shifted his focus to food five years ago and began selling jars of homemade sauce out of the trunk of his car. Today, the brand markets a trio of tomato sauces that are produced in small batches and made with carefully sourced ingredients. Monte's also sells bagged buchi and rolotini dry pasta. The brand is carried in over 1,000 retail stores across the U.S., including Target, ShopRite, Fairway and Erewhon, and is planning to expand its presence in several other chains later this year. In the following interview, PJ talks about how his family's background motivated him to get into the food business, why he credits “human being relationships” for some early wins and the continued growth of Monte's, how he reduced ingredient costs by 25% without sacrificing quality and how he landed the brand at Target. Show notes: 0:32: Interview: PJ Monte, Founder & CEO, Monte's Fine Foods – PJ chronicles his family's history in restaurants and hotels before recalling a few notable stories about the early days of Monte's and uncommon methods of distribution. He also talks about how “human connections” between his team and retail buyers are the key to retail relationships and helps differentiate Monte's from other companies and how a chance meeting helped him secure a major deal for the brand. PJ also discusses his insistence on using premium ingredients and working with a co-manufacturer that could match his standards, how a deep dive into the company's supply chain helped it secure placement at Target and why he believes that quality doesn't need to be synonymous with being “the little guy.” Brands in this episode: Monte's Fine Foods, Rao's
