Makro rated 'cheapest wholesaler' for essentials

Lester Kiewit speaks to Michelle Kemp, External Communications Manager of Massmart about predicted Easter spending trends. Massmart brands include Makro, Game, Builder's Warehouse and CBW. 

Kemp says 'consumers are feeling the pinch' as inflation increases. "But they're focusing on how to make Easter as bountiful as possible for themselves", she adds.

Kemp says Makro aims to keep costs low for customers, especially regarding three of the major Easter trends, which include:

• Bulk-buying on essential items.
• Sweet treats like Easter eggs and soft drinks are not left off grocery lists.
• Beacon Mallow Eggs continue to be 'a staple' this Easter.

"For three months in a row, Makro is rated as the wholesaler with the cheapest grocery basket for essential items."
