Local man wins trip to Scotland

Makro partnered with Johnnie Walker as part of a big-on-life experience to announce Ormonde View resident, Maanda Tshikororo, as the winner of a trip to Scotland worth R350 000 on Thursday, January 26.

Tshikororo was chosen as the winner after entering the competition by purchasing a bottle of Johnnie Walker. As the winner, Tshikororo will get an opportunity to discover the origins of Johnny Walker during his stay at Drummuir Castle, the home of the iconic Johnnie Walker himself and alcoholic beverages company Diageo.

Tshikororo told the COURIER: “I’m really excited and shocked. I never thought in my entire life that I would win something like this. It has not even completely sunk in that I have won. Maybe it will become real when I actually board the plane. As someone who has never won anything before in my entire life, this is really exciting.”

“I’m taking my wife along with me on the trip and we are both incredibly excited and looking forward to the trip, particularly since this will be our first time on a plane and our first time travelling overseas. We were planning a trip to Cape Town in March so that we could experience flying, but now it’s more than a plane and more than Cape Town. It’s really unbelievable. Since I found out that I have won, I am constantly on the internet researching Scotland,” adds Tshikororo.

Johnnie Walker assistant brand manager – reserve portfolio – Sasha Govender said: “We have established a good partnership and thoroughly enjoy working with Makro on projects to reward our loyal consumers while recruiting new ones.”
