Although foreign investment is always important for any healthy growth of a countries economy it is important that governments encourage the growth of domestic companies in order to further stimulate the economy by providing jobs for local labour markets. Ebeano Supermarkets is an example of such retailers that should be heavily encouraged and supported by the government to expand in the market, in order for them to compete alongside big name foreign retailers such as Shoprite.
Ebeano has recently modernised its store layout and adopted the use of point of sales (POS) systems for payments at the checkout. This will not only encourage efficiency for workers and a better service for customers but will also allow Ebeano to better manage their inventory to see what products sell well or otherwise thus ensuring they are always catering to their local consumer needs. A pharmacy has also been added in-house, allowing for local residents to shop for beauty, health and medical products at similar prices as the bigger retailers. Lets see more support for domestic retailers please!
