Choppies can do better and should do better

When the super chain store, Choppies, came into being, no one ever thought it would be this big. Today, Choppies is a big brand well known around the country. Every major village has a Choppies store. Perhaps one big thing that has endeared Choppies to a lot of Batswana is that it offers competitive prices.

Very few people can argue against the fact that the coming of Choppies has helped to force prices down. After a long time of dominance of South African chain stores, it is pleasing to learn that a Botswana grown company is taking the country by storm and it is even planning to conquer the regional market, including South Africa.

Already, some Choppies stores have opened up in South Africa. This goes to show that Botswana companies can penetrate the outside market.While we commend Choppies for being one of the flag bearers we believe that there are a number of issues that they will have to address if they really want to be at the top end of the market.
