The Shoprite Group has increased its shareholding in Zulzi On Demand, the company that helped build the original Checkers Sixty60 platform, from 26% to 41.2%.
Zulzi is owned by South African tech entrepreneur and software engineer Vutlharhi "Donald" Valoyi, who serves as the company's founder and CEO.
Earlier today I spoke on a panel discussing de-risking Africa investment confidence, ESG & policy stability and certainty. It was a lovely and insightful panel discussion @ACMsummit.

iโll teach you the best time to buy products, so pay attention;
1. cars - dec
2. iPhones - sep to oct
3. TVs - jan to feb
4. laptops - nov to july & aug
5. electronics - nov
6. washer & dryers - sept to oct
7. grills & patio - aug to sept
8. indoor furniture - jan & july
9. gold - june to july
10. flights - feb to march & mid-week
most of you focus on what to buy but smart buyers also think about when to buy it.
look, cars get cheaper when dealers need to clear old inventory, phones get discounted when newer models arrive, TVs drop when retailers need room for the next generation, laptops get aggressive during back-to-school and holiday sales, i can go on and on
the same product can cost dramatically different amounts depending on when you buy it.
patience is a form of leverage.
you don't always need to earn more money to afford more things, sometimes you just need to stop buying at the wrong time.
you might want to save, bookmark and share with others.
