8. The Simple Man:

Includes 1x superhero wall art, 1x insulated cup, 1x grooming kit and selected snacks valued at R1,475

The Simple Man is an online store and e-commerce platform whose main target market is men. We specialize in selling items that fall under: Grooming; Outdoors equipment; Smoking; Munchies and Snacks; and other interesting and collectable goods. The Simple Man is constantly adding new items that we believe our fellow South African Men deserve.

Currently we are expanding; creating a marketplace for new start-up businesses; small businesses; and for those entrepreneurs that have limited or no access to an online platform in which they can sell their products. With no shipping or storage costs as well as a small commission, the Simple Man simply wants to give other entrepreneurs the opportunity for the growth that they deserve. 

Who are we? 

The Simple Man started off as a “simple” conversation between friends about the lack of men’s basic needs and interests being catered for in the South African marketplace, soon manifested itself into the Simple Man.

The Simple Man is a character based off of one of those friends who felt as though they can never really find what they are looking for: Things that are not too flashy but also not boring; Things that are value for money but also not too expensive; Things that can be entertaining when alone but also entertaining with others.

We know that more men want simple, they want it fast and they want an experience. This is what we do – this is what we prioritize while the simple man focuses on the rest. We are a team of like minded individuals who encourage men to pursue their interests while investing in themselves and others. We have made self care “simple” for men.

With the Simple Man, size doesn’t matter: Because what we lack in size, we make up for in perfect execution; delivering the best customer service; Individual attention; and good quality products.
