EKASINOMICS: KULOOLA - SA’s first rural online grocery store.

South Africa's first rural-centred online grocery store and delivery service has navigated degraded roads and rough terrain to complete more than 25,000 orders in KwaZulu-Natal.
Online shopping and food delivery services have boomed over the past two years, driven by the Covid-19 pandemic, which kept people at home.
South Africa's brick-and-mortar retailers, like Shoprite and Pick n Pay, have grown their delivery home-delivery services. Fast food delivery giants, Uber Eats and Mr D, are expanding to other areas as demand grows. Similarly, Takealot, the country's biggest e-retailer, recently reported increased sales, with overseas competitor, Amazon, now eyeing the South African market.
