Shoprite’s Checkers coming after Mr Price, TFG, PEP, and Truworths with 50 stores

• Shoprite's Checkers has opened its 50th Uniq clothing store, a milestone that reflects strong customer demand for well-made clothing that delivers on quality and style without the premium price tag.
• The expansion poses a threat to South Africa's established clothing retailers, as the country's biggest retailer seeks to enter markets outside its core competency.
• Uniq's 50th store was opened in Sea Point, Cape Town, on 28 September 2026, with the brand having established a presence in eight provinces, opening 13 new stores in the past financial year.
