However, with perseverance and consistency, this dream has come true and today we are proud to say we are bringing our services closer to the people of Soweto and surrounding communities\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe believe this new business will not only create jobs for people in the surrounding communities but it will also eliminate the need for people to walk or drive long distances to access retail facilities and petroleum products.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Also in attendance was Pick n Pay Express Soweto store manager Trevor Kwenani, who expressed his excitement to<\/p>\n<p>introduce the new store to customers and suppliers: \u201cWe are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We take care of your needs when you cannot reach other outlets, at any time, so you don\u2019t need to worry when you forget to buy bread for yourself or the kids.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to everyone who contributed and made time for the successful development of our shop and the launch\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>According to Pick n Pay Namibia managing director Graeme Mouton: \u201cWe had a great team working tirelessly, training staff, merchandising the store and getting systems in place, and we should recognise the hard work, time and dedication that has gone into opening this wonderful store in such a short time.<\/p>\n<p>I am very proud of the outcome of this project and would hereby like to thank everyone who has played a role in making this happen.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet me take advantage of this opportunity to welcome the site owners, David Ilonga and Roland Jacobs, as well as the store manager, Trevor Kwenani, and their entire team to our Pick n Pay family. The Pick n Pay Express store brings opportunity for expansion, innovation and job creation.
