The Crazy Store expands footprint in Botswana

The store, which opened its doors on Friday 16 February, is 173m2 of shopping space in one of Gaborone’s busiest and most well-established shopping centres.

“We opened our first store in Mowana Park in Phakalane in 2017 and it has surpassed our expectations,” says Kevin Lennett, The Crazy Store’s managing director.

Property director, Carl van Rensburg adds, “We were offered a great site, in a prime location, directly outside the entrance to Shoprite, and we felt that we had no choice but to take up the offer.”
