Hi Everybody,

Here at Mr Price we know good business is simple business, that’s why when we started the Mr Price Group with one small retail outlet in Brickhill Road, Durban, in 1987 we started with a few simple goals.

Being average Joe’s ourselves, we looked at what the average South African needed in their life – more choice, honest value for money and the ability to enjoy life on a budget and if you look at each of our divisions you will see that they deliver these needs across the different product categories.

For us at Mr Price it is about doing it right the first time and with the help of our business partners (everyone who works in every division at all levels) we have gone from strength to strength. That’s why at Mr Price Group we are always expanding, evolving and growing.

Mr Price Group Limited and its subsidiaries operate over 750 stores across Southern Africa.

Mr Price Group consists of four retail chains, focusing on clothing, footwear, accessories and homewares. These chains are divided into two operational divisions namely; the apparel and home divisions.

Mr Price is about casual fun and relaxed fashion for the whole family. This value retail chain offers casual clothing, intimate wear and accessories for kids and adults at affordable prices. Located across Southern Africa, our stores are known for their popular house brands which include RT, RED (surf wear), BODY MATERIAL (underwear) and MAXED (sportswear). Mr Price is about affordable fashion for everyone.

All major sport types, including seasonal and non-seasonal sports, are represented in both international and own brands. All the product has been rigorously tested and carries endorsement of top sports personalities in each sporting code. The high costs of sports goods are a thing of the past and Mr Price Sport is excited to bring performance product within reach of the South African sports fan.

At Miladys the belief is that fashion isn’t about age, it’s about attitude. This fashion retailer provides classic and updated classic clothing, footwear, intimate wear and accessories to women throughout South Africa, Swaziland, Botswana and Namibia.

Sheet Street is a leading retail brand of ready-made home textiles in five Southern African countries, with over 240 stores in total.

Almost 20 years later this promise still stands true and Sheet Street continues “Loving Your Home” with great value every day. Sheet Street’s wide range of quality home fashions and everyday basics targets the mass middle-income Southern African customer who wants to co-ordinate their home both tastefully and responsibly.
