As some of you may already know, I'm a huge fan of the online retail revolution, for all of the benefits Martin Janse van Rensburg mentions here. But, as anyone who shops online knows, sometimes coordinating collections can be a bit difficult. But Leoni Volschenk believes distribution and delivery systems will soon be evolving to accommodate for the growth in e-tail purchases. In other news this week, the SACSC has a new president; GPI has bought a 10% stake in Spur Corporation; and SAA Voyager is partnering with Total to offer members one Voyager mile for every litre of petrol purchased at Total stations. Have a great week!
