âWoolies Dash will see Woolworths become the first and only retailer in South Africa to pioneer and offer store-to-door cold chain within an on-demand service of this kind,â Woolworths said in its statement.
âThis also sets a new benchmark for cold-chain, which includes the latest world class refrigeration technology in a lightweight carrier,â it added.
Branding yet to be revealed
Unsurprisingly, the group did not provide visuals of what the concept looks like just yet, as competition between the trio of Cape Town-based retailers (Shoprite/Checkers, PnP and Woolworths Food) hots up.
Woolworths is known to have one of the most comprehensive fresh food cold-chains in the local market.

“We spend a lot of time educating our tenants and first-time buyers around what goes into buying a property, by explaining bond intricacies, and matching them up with the right originators or attorneys,” says Emanuel Germanis, founder and managing director of Evo Properties in Cape Town. “We do this with understanding, care and empathy, and younger buyers who have no experience and may feel nervous about the process appreciate this. There’s nothing better than empowering someone to allow them to own their own home.”
Evo Properties, a sales and letting property-brokerage and property-development consultancy, was launched six years ago by Germanis, his brother, Stephan, and friend Matthew McWilliams. Today the company manages several hundred tenants for local and international investors, in residential properties across the Southern Peninsula.
