SHOPRITE, Africaâs retail giant, has appointed veteran chartered accountants and board members to serve as independent non-executive directors.
The group said yesterday that Nonkululeko Gobodo and Linda de Beer would serve as members of the groupâs audit and risk committee.
The appointments, effective May 11, followed the appointment of Wendy Lucas-Bull as Shopriteâs chairperson last November.
Gobodo had an affinity with Shopriteâs culture of respect and being customer-centric.
âThis is a great opportunity for me to work with a group that has been going through major innovations in the last few years, doing exciting things that are changing the experience of its customers,â Gobodo said.
