Shoprite is pulling the plug on Nigeria.
The Cape Town-based retailer – the largest in Africa - made the announcement on Monday.
The company spent 15 tough years in what is the Continent’s largest economy and most populous nation (206 million).
Shoprite reported an 8.7% rise in sales in South Africa for the year ending on 30 June 2020.
Sales outside of South Africa – but excluding Nigeria – fell by 1.4%.
The Money Show’s Bruce Whitfield interviewed Dianna Games, Chief Executive at business consultancy Africa At Work.
