Following a test period in March, the Everyshop website (www.everyshop.co.za) is finally here, heralding the much-anticipated launch of Everyshop, South Africa’s latest and most exciting e-commerce platform.
Peter Griffiths, CEO at the JD Group, a division of Pepkor Holdings, explained the group already offers extensive online shopping to South African consumers through its retail brands, which include Incredible Connection, HiFi Corporation, Bradlows, Rochester and Sleepmasters.
“Immense know-how, e-commerce and logistic capabilities and infrastructure have been built up to provide world-class online shopping experiences with swift and efficient delivery options.
“The opportunity to also offer South African online shoppers access to a vast array of other product categories resulted in launching Everyshop,” he said.
“With the support of our existing retail businesses, we have partnered with some of South Africa’s most well-known and loved brands across several industries, including specialist electronics and appliances, furniture, fashion, footwear and DIY to deliver true value to the South African shopper.
“Everyshop’s customers will be spoilt for choice conveniently and affordably with access to the products they need and the brands they love.”
Everyshop offers consumers the opportunity to shop the world’s leading brands and have them delivered anywhere in South Africa.
With an extensive range and exclusive offers, Everyshop is not only South Africa’s latest online retail platform but a treat for all types of customers with a perfectly curated assortment of products, ranging from fashion and homeware to the latest tech and appliances.
“With everything in one place and supported by some of the latest e-commerce innovations while underpinned by a nationwide logistics infrastructure, Everyshop is a guided digital-first experience providing every shopper with a unique and tailored departmental shopping experience intent on being a true disruptor in the e-commerce landscape,” Griffiths commented.
“At Everyshop, we love brands and we know our shoppers do too, that’s why we’ve created a platform that houses the world’s leading brands, such as Nike, Apple, Revlon and Samsung.
“Everyshop also supports new South African entrepreneurs and already includes a wide range of local brands such as Me&B, The T-shirt Bed company and Move Pretty. A journey through Everyshop is not only about shopping but about finding complete solutions to specific needs.”
The online platform has a nationwide distribution network that includes two dedicated fulfilment centres and 15 large-scale distribution centres that position products closer to customers and offer faster, affordable fulfilment across a wide variety of merchandise from small high-value goods to large appliances, TVs, furniture and mattress bedsets.
One of the next steps includes the on-boarding of approved retailers as marketplace partners that will further enhance Everyshop’s merchandise offering.
Consumers have a wide choice of easy and safe payment options with frictionless checkout, with more to be added in the coming weeks.
“Through extensive market research and needs analysis, we have identified over 10 different shopper missions that make Everyshop the family destination of choice, to equip students returning and learning institutions, those still working from home and providing families everything they need for home and while travelling,” said Griffiths.
“As part of the launch we invite consumers to register and they will receive a R100 discount code towards their first purchase of R500 or more. Find out more about this limited offer on our website.
“We will also continue to grow our weekly promotional deals across over 25 categories. Consumers can already make use of our “up to 30 per cent off” offers on various categories. These offers can easily be found on the promotions page.”
