So shop rite has been the reason local supermarkets have not grown.

I wanted to ask same question. We don't really have smart people in Nigeria.

Across developed worlds, there are many shoprite types scattered across and none stopped one from growing.

The Nigeria market is extremely difficult to do business. U don't have electricity, u don't have water, u have terrible roads, u have crazy tax here and there, u have dubious employees, the list goes on.

It is not easy to run a business in Nigeria. U still have insecurity with poor data base that makes it difficult catching a criminal.

They come with so much economic benefits.

Employment, source of business to local businesses, major off-taker of the manufacturing industries, name it....

We will miss them except some Nigerian business man/men step in to replace them.

No they just didn't make any profit within the last 2 years and don't see the need to stay in the Nigerian market.

Although I'm indifferent to this news their exit will affect other businesses in the same mall that needed that pull of shoprite to attract more customers.

Maybe he 4got dat so many nigerians will loose their source of living in the wake of this pandemic. Imagine thousands that will be placed on d labour market if dey really leave d country. I pray � and hope � dey have a rethink. Federal government should wade in and look into what is making dem to want to leave

That's not the reason, a lot of local supermarkets are just badly managed and never grow out of the local government they started in.

A major reason why Shoprite is leaving Nigeria is the expected launch of Walmart Nigeria next year.

Blame the pay variation on government policy on minimum wage.
South Africa has a better minimum wage than Nigeria.

There are now supermarkets every where. My estate in 9ja had none as at 2016. Today it has over 4. People going to shoprite reduced. Makes sense to cash out now

I want to agree but we all know the government will stiffle those "local supermarkets" with ridiculous taxes and levies.

I don't care for Shoprite but will the government ever let local businesses thrive?

How many businesses from years ago are still in existence? Think about it.

If Shoprite with all its worth has chosen to vacate Nigeria, how much harder will it be for "local supermarkets" that do not have access to as much money as Shoprite?

That is a big lie. Why didn't they grow before ShopRite arrive in the first?

The fact is that Nigeria system of government will not allow a private company that has no government or political affiliation to grow up to world standard level

Exactly.

No private business can grow in this country.

See what happened to gokada and the others. Everyone was jumping on the band wagon and one day government just closed it down.

No plausible reason given.

The government doesnt want you to succeed. Fact
