Message from the Chairman – September 2020
The good news this month is that we are moving to Level 1; the “bad” news is that our GDP has contracted by 40% plus in the last quarter.
It means that recovery will be slow and we hope that our industry will get through this painful period as well.
shop-sa, your association, will continue to support and keep you informed.
We are proud to include in this newsletter the results of the shop-sa/My Office survey: Back to School (BTS) 2021: Expectations As A Result Of Covid-19.
Thanks to all who participated! To request a copy of the survey, please click here.
Our next Webinar will feature David Shapiro of Sasfin, possibly at a virtual AGM at the end of October.
Finally, we are sad to include the obituary for Peter Cronje, former purchasing director of Waltons and Springbok rugby player, in this newsletter.
Hans Servas
