The SPAR shopping experience is one that we try to make as pleasant and enjoyable as far as possible. We aim to provide "friendly, caring" service, which cannot be matched. This includes, as with SPAR Brand products, the attention to quality of both product and service, which is the hallmark of SPAR. History With the 1960's emergence of grocery chains in South Africa, a group of 8 wholesalers was given the exclusive rights to the SPAR name in 1963, to service 500 small retailers. A number of mergers and take-overs followed, and today, The SPAR Group Ltd operates 6 distribution centres, supplies goods and services to 788 SPAR stores in South Africa. The SPAR Group listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange in 2005. About Us Our three friendly store formats, which are, SPAR for neighbourhood shopping, SUPERSPAR for one-stop, competitively priced, bulk shopping and KWIKSPAR for every day convenience, cater more than adequately for all your shopping preferences. SPAR operates under "voluntary trading" principles which means that while we encourage our retailers to take advantage of SPAR's trading power, our retailers can source goods from local traders. That is why each store has its own regional personality. Today the SPAR Group Ltd operates 6 distribution centres, supplies goods and services to almost 800 SPAR stores in South Africa. These distribution centres are situated in the Western Cape; Eastern Cape; KwaZulu-Natal; Lowveld; South Rand and North Rand. Our Central Office is located in Durban.
