Makro - The Beginning

 

Makro has evolved immensely since the opening of our first store in 1971 in Germiston. This was also a milestone for South Africa, as it became the first cash-and-carry store in the country making use of top-end technology for stock and sales tracking.

 

By 1989, five new stores had been added to the stable and Managing Director, Mark Lamberti, had formulated a strong crew and strategy that would found and grow Massmart - a multi format major wholesale and retail group of which Makro is the cornerstone.

 

Our flagship store, Woodmead, was built in 1993 and has since grown to be one of the most popular retail outlets in the northern suburbs of Johannesburg.Fast tracking to 2011, to the merger between Massmart and Walmart – the US based retail company operating all over the world, and now in South Africa too.

 

This merger has expanded the offering we extend to our shoppers, allowing you to enjoy more variety and brands at even more competitive prices.

 

2014 saw the release of our e-commerce platform. It is the next step in our evolution and the perfect opportunity for us to ensure that we continue to provide the best shopping experience on every level. We welcome you to browse our products and make use of the convenience of online shopping.
