Makro catalogue - specials of the week
Makro
Makro opened their first store in Germiston in 1971. They hold the title for two firsts. They were the first cash and carry operation in South Africa and the first company to use IBM technology to keep track of sales and stock. Makro grew at an alarming rate due to good managers and mergers. They merged with Walmart under the Massmart group, of which they are a cornerstone. Despite the wide variety of products they offer the most attractive thing about Makro is how they give back to the community.
Makro supports no less than six organizations. They have a keen interest in education and therefore choose to support projects that focus on early childhood development. There is a need for such development in South Africa and Makro says they are aware of this need and the struggles that are faced in this area. They support Hope Worldwide’s SUCCEED, Kommunity Desk, Izzi Trust, the African Children Feeding Scheme, Tomorrow Trust and the Wildlands Conservation Trust. The last of these is a wildlife conservation project, which just goes to show that Makro does their bit for the environment as well. Makro strives to make the world a better place for everyone and it really shows in their commitment to their Corporate Social Investments.
In a further attempt to help the environment Makro has launched Green Stores. There are currently 19 Makro stores in South Africa and with each new one the company is ensuring that they leave a smaller imprint on the environment. The latest one is more energy and water efficient than all of its predecessors. They also implement water harvesting and green packaging as a way to save the environment. With the current water shortage in South Africa the water harvesting in the cooling systems is an excellent way to help the environment.
