Tables flip for Walmart and Game in South Africa

• Walmart has outperformed the Game store at East Point Shopping Centre, with a trading density 28.7% higher than Game over the four months since March 2026.
• The East Point store was opened in East Point following Massmart's success with its two previous stores in South Africa, and created 80 new jobs in the area.
• Massmart has been quiet about further expansions in South Africa, with no new information on store rollouts since July, but the East Point store's strong performance presents an opportunity for the centre to expand its range of stores.
