Fourways

Where?

So I have one in Fourways-

Mm

... and I have one in Pretoria.

Where in Fourways? I live, I live in Fourways.

[laughs] I cannot disclose the location.

Why?

[laughs]

Got the school shoes for my daughter and then got my boy into it as well.

Called my sister, said, "Girl, plug." She ran to the Jo'burg branch in Fourways, I think it was, and she got her daughter, uh, the school shoes as well, and she's got a son now, and everybody's just spreading the word because wow, what a, what a beautiful thing to have.

Just so I had to just mention that from my personal-

Thank you

Joburg highways, the only really busy one is, uh, Elands Haven up towards Gillooly's on the N3 northbound.

Fourways already looks a bit busy, Winnie Mandela especially.

In Pretoria

Karabo Peter with your sport headlines.

Mm

... it's, it's, it's all about the customer because the, the lady or the man that's in Fourways is different to the one in Stellenbosch, is different to the one in Paarl.

Um, so the great thing about convenience shopping is it's all about servicing that local community and, um, what is important for them.

Mm.

No.

Us in Fourways, we just drive straight.

Even if you're going through Pretoria, there's a toll gate.

No, we go through Fourways, chief.

There's no toll gates for us, dog.

Yeah, it's fine.

If you and I went tomorrow and opened a restaurant, Stephen, we're gonna hire, say, five people to run the restaurant.

But if a chain, a restaurant chain or a cha-- a, a multinational company opens a branch, they are likely to say, "Okay, Stephen, you're already running Sandton, why don't you run Morningside as well? Why don't you run Fourways while you're at it?" Whereas if you and I open another branch, we need other people.

That's the advantage of having small businesses.

And because we don't take them seriously, we don't roll out the red carpet as the late Clem Sunta used to say, we roll out red tape.
