Good riddance. Importing their merchandise here to sell while our local products wallow in penury.

This is good news. This should help us reduce our import bill.

This is very good news. Opportunity for a local business to thrive. Can DSTV and MTN also leave please?
Re: South Africa's Truworths Exits Nigeria by Nobody: 2:53pm On Feb 19, 2016
Which company is this and where were their branches? What did they market? I've never heard of the company in my life.

You lot will never see this as good news. You are too busy looking for ways to nail this government to be able to see this as a good opportunity for a local business.

You complain of naira been almost valueless, yet do not want the real cost of the lack of value of the naira to be dealt with. Yeye people.
Re: South Africa's Truworths Exits Nigeria by Natascha(f): 2:58pm On Feb 19, 2016
Even over here in south africa, we dont care about Truworths. Its so overpriced and expensive. When theres a SALE, the prices are still sky high.

How many things do you even produce that you decided to blab?

Do you even know that importing machines for businesses is a hell for startups presently? Or you think Nigerians can produce simple metal scrolling machines not to talk of more complicated ones?

Oga pack go one side make I see road.. angry

Nobody cares, even in south africa, south africans hardly patronize them. They prefer Mr price made for the masses.

Be careful not to talk of what you know nothing about....we live in the information age era. Just google or whatever to see and be amazed at the number of outlest Truworths have in SA and then talk again.

Ignorance, ignorance, ignorance.

Funny enough, I never knew they existed.

in any case....i dont understand this your reasoning.....chances were slim that you were gonna know about them since they operated only two outlets in a country of over 170mil people....worse if you live in the deep rural areas....
Re: South Africa's Truworths Exits Nigeria by okuneddie(m): 3:32pm On Feb 19, 2016
just two stores? no wonder I no sabi them....why won't they close down....most of these SA stores import things we even have here in the country even from Ghana....imagine shop rite importing water melon and the likes wey plenty to the extent that them dey waste even for farms in Benue, gbemu in Taraba state and Jos......

You supporters of APC would see nothing wrong with that. If MTN and DSTV leaves Nigeria do you know the unemployment that would create, after all your Baba is not creating any job either. By the time is done on you guys you would be running to Ghana to look for a job to do

Be careful what you wish for.....oh by the way if mediocrity is your way of life you will yearn for it even when the real deal is there infront you....I agree with let DSTV and MTN pull out let's see............mediocrity will reign supreme! Of course.

Shop....gini? Please if na your prayer God no go answer am. Shoprite is stepping up the game by redefining retail shopping experience.

Are you not tired of seeing petty, petty Kunle, Emeka, Abuchi, Ose, Adamu, etc mini-stores? These guys are supposed pool their resources together and go into partnership to compete with the mega malls. Yes, they should put air-conditioners in their shops, and beautify the environment because Nigerians can't continue to do biz in kiosks

Last but not the least, I love Shoprite bread a lot so Shoprite has come to stay.

So according to your reasoning or the lack thereof, Coca-Cola an American company, BMW a German company, LG a Korean company etc should leave your country because the"chop your money" or is it specifically directed to South African companies?
