- The first Woolworths store opened its doors to the public in Cape Town in October 1931. It was founder Max Sonnenberg who captured the public’s imagination with dynamic store policies that set Woolworths apart from its competitors.
Three years later, a second branch opened in Durban, with another two in Port Elizabeth and Johannesburg a year later. Since then they’ve been building on our reputation for superior quality, exciting innovation, and excellent value.
Jungle Oats is the best oat brand in South Africa. Jungle is the Colgate of oatmeal. 😂😂
Ok I will try that brand next. Thank you.
No,it not
The best one the one they sell at Dischem
Organic is a new word and very western to us here in Africa. Everything here by nature is already what you call organic in America
The bananas in the box are natural not genetically modified
And that's what I need.
I only shop Woolies red meats and chicken because they are the best. The chicken skin stay on unlike other chicken brands that integrate even not over cooked. What I also like about Woolies is that most, if not all of their store brands are produced in South Africa...I am happy to pay R50 more for a South African virgin olive oil than those cheap EU versions that are mixed with lord knows what
The only time I go into Woolworths for grocery shopping is when I go there with my mother who's a pensioner but can somehow afford to shop there.
Woolies is not as expensive as people think it is. You will be surprised by some of their pricing such as bulk buy red meats and chicken...Best meat and chicken...but fruit? Yeah, that's pricey...Ready to eat meals are also expensive but the best 😉
wrapping bananas in plastic is insane. they have a skin that is super thick. they dont need a plastic wrap
All the food in the stores are South African except for a few US brands
No they import from Europe not America...
@@MetaphysicalExplorations Brands like Kellogs and Coca Cola are American
I don't think we have European brands in our stores
@@MetaphysicalExplorations Not really we dont import most of our food most is South African brands produced locally and even US and European brands they are not imported but US and European companies produce them in South Africa to sell locally and export to the rest of Africa.
@@MetaphysicalExplorations We produce most of our food in SA
Loves me some Woolies! The food is much much fresher than in the USA....Plus the selection of some things is miles and miles better.....Artisan breads, cheeses and meats as examples..Did I mention the wine?
Love this 😍😍
This is an awesome video.
Hi! New subbie from SA 🇿🇦 Limpopo, welcome to SA brother
Thank you so much!
The fruits and vegetables aren’t all organic. The organic products are labelled “organic” as well. It may not be as genetically modified as the US, but unfortunately the majority of the Woolworths fresh produce isn’t organic
Thank you for sharing 🙏🏾🙏🏾☺️
You're welcome!
God made the food organic. Most of the world that's how they grow it. Good video man
You are so right! Thank you.
The Woolworths in SA is different from, and unrelated to the one you had in the US. This one is a local company that's been there for decades, hence it's still in operation. Also unrelated to the Australian one, they just share a name.
Are you sure? Many SA companies have operations in a number of Western countries including the UK , Poland etc. Nandos, Spar and Ocean Basket are such companies. I listen to Business News on a frequent basis, where they discuss how they are performing overseas.
Woolworths was founded in SA Cape Town and it has many stores around the globe same as Nandos.
@@nkosinathikhoza3787the US and Australian woolworths are unrelated to ours
Wow, I didn't know this.
@@truesouth6532 I would always advise people to do a little research before making comments. I have done some research, and discovered that the Australian Woolworths is a subsidiary of Woolworths Holdings in SA. This means that the Australian Woolworths is fully owned by the South African Woolworths, unless they later sold it to a different company. If they did, which company is that?
In Ghana you buy property to lease for 100 years we dont play that game in Southafrica😜😜🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦sorry
😁😁😁😎😎Yah bhuti
Try woolies spinach and feta pie.
We call them trolleys, in the US it's carts
Woolies does sell almond and oat milk, you just have to find it 😂
That day they didn't... Also I was looking for Almond Breeze brand.
BTW we do have Appleside vinegar... It just doesn't sit in the fridge
What I cannot find is the Apple Cider (juice from the apple) not the vinegar. I have a bottle of Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar.
@@Channel_Mesanwhen you in Woolworths don't be shy to ask for what you looking for
@@Channel_Mesan we don’t have apple cider juice just regular apple juices some fresh and refrigerated and others boxed. You should try Appletizer it’s a carbonated 100% apple juice that Americans seem to like here. There’s also a grape option called Grapetiser
@@Channel_Mesan try Appetizer or Krush Apple juice its 100%
Stay with us full time ok ❤
Greetings, Brotha Mesan❤
Peace and Blessings Brother
It’s so pretty
What is so pretty?
@@Channel_Mesanthe mall is pretty
Go for jungle oats😊
❤❤❤
Thank you for leaving a comment!
Must really love thay exchange rate😅
I live in the town where the Buttanut factory resides. In fact the factory is just behind in another street where I work in an industrial area 😊
Soda, to me, tastes better in Africa than the United States. That was my experience in Ghana anyway
I agree with you on that.
Woolies is one of the most expensive foods stores in SA😅
I understand.
Anything that says “No sugar” or “sugar free” is full of sugar…I avoid those at all cost 👀🤔 that store is expensive….
Hey family, hope you good abd are still ejoying SA. Just wanted to state that Woolworths food doesn't correctly represent south sfrica prices of food coz the prices thete are mostly twice or three times more the regular price of products. Woolworths food is like a luxury food shorp, but they still sell the same food you'd find snywhere in SA, but its just packaged different and it costs much higher at Woolworths food.
To find nirmal SA food prices, you might need to visit a checkers, pick'n pay or spar or even Shoprite. Shoprote is like the cheapest when it comes to food prices.
You need to buy "Veri Peri Hot "please
Wait, I'm in the US, hearing you say that America is a scam makes me feel like I'm scammed.
We are being scammed out of our happiness in so many ways, in my opinion. But I only saw this after I moved abroad.
The USA is definitely overrated in my view it's basically a third world country. Quality of life for us blk SAns here looks and feels so much better than if I was to move there.
Unfortunately you are... sorry
He's telling the truth I love in London where an organic apple is £3.50 per apple in whole foods
Wow this is so dope!!! I absolutely can not stand here is the states everything is processed. It takes me 10x longer to shop bc I’m always reading labels 😭🤣🤣like oh no does that say enriched 😅
Exactly!!
And, GMO and bioengineered ingredients in just about everything.
Had to rewind...
Toys r Us?
Jeffrey?
i didnt know woolworths sell food...here in kenya its just a clothing store....and mad expensive at that.
Might be because their food is also expensive and they've tried other markets outside of SA, like Nigeria in the past -- which turned out to be a fail because many complained that it was expensive. They've always been a food, clothing, cosmetics and homeware store [department store] here in SA though.
They're here in Zambia too, just clothes.
@@_theerealnono_7694they sell premium foods
It is a premier brand, and it's food is of highest quality, compared to other retail stores. It has some presence in Western countries.
They olso have fast food that sell Burger .its Woolworths now..just like burger king
Thank you, sir.
You're welcome
The SA hater who comments on all SA videos 😂😂😂😂......
@@hopebuhali3887lol I noticed him/her too. 😂
@hopebuhali3887 he's Nigerian , so we not surprised at all.
Go do a shop at pick n pay and checkers, aszwelll wool worths very expensive, fo proper research
Yeahhh but he is shopping with his dollars and it's still cheaper than in the USA is the point he is making. So if they can afford it why not.
Good video but bad audio 🔉. I can barely hear what you're saying
Really? This is the first time I am hearing this. Ok next time I will talk louder.
@@Channel_Mesan
I don't think it's you. Audio devices comes in different quality.
Woolworths grocery store is one of the most expensive stores, you haven't done the price justice because you shopped where many avoid to go because of the prices.
That's a good point. Also my target audience are people from the USA and Europe mainly.
Actually Woolies is cheaper than most food/ grocery stores.... in my opinion. Spar is expensive.
Oh yeah, that makes sense.@@Channel_Mesan
Really, wow! I'm surprised that Spar is more expensive. I haven't been in Africa for a little minute though, I'm really speaking under corrections.@@honordiamond2548
Just because people feel that quality is expensive doesn’t mean the store is expensive. People need to really look at what they are getting from their so called cheaper options. It’s cheap because it’s a cheap product. Don’t be cheap with what u feed ur body and splurge on clothes and accessories 😂
Is woolworths rpthe best for organic and value for money ?
In my opinion yes.
Woolies is quality everything. It is where I shop because I am fortunate enough. We have different stores with different price points. Shoprite at the lower end for affordable goods. Woolies at the higher end. But if you live in Durban we have Indian run businesses that can make your shopping trolley even cheaper. You just need to know where to go. Ask the locals.
We don't do artificial nonsense
I'm a South African and a Woolworths Employee... Woolworths is the most expensive store in SA
Are you living there or just visiting? Do you have any info on artist Visas?
I am living
Start with the tourist visa
@@Channel_Mesan So do you do border runs for long term stay? How do you get long term stay?
Does your heart mean yes?@@Channel_Mesan Planning to come but was working on Visa... but plan to be there long term. I understand you can only apply for longterm Visa in your country.
What I don't like about SA is that when they are building malls in other African countries they build trash and don't build something like this. It is so annoying to me. That means they don't want other African countries to have decent malls. Their malls in Nigeria are very ugly.
You are in every SA-themed video my guy, it's giving obsession
In most cases is the budget, we have low budget malls in SA as well
But is it SA building those malls in Nigeria or investors?
It depends on your budget , you cant get high quality if you not willing to pay
Private entities and investors build malls people.. governments don't.. cause why would ramaphosa's administration build malls in other african countries?
Next time you buy cereal try a South African classic Pronutro ❤
Only people with money and credit cards can shop at Woolworths they expensive,
Shoprite and Pick and Pay cheaper.
That's a lie though. Pick 'n Pay has never been cheap!
Picky n pay has never cheaper... its more expensive than Woolworths
Pick n Pay is very very pricey...Woolworths not bad at all..
@@benjiza0314these shops are almost similar difference congress with quality at most
Not really. Spar is more expensive than Woolworths
Milo is sold at Walmart 😂
In Ghana you buy property to lease for 100 years we dont play that game in Southafrica😜😜🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦sorry
It's the same in South Africa if you buy property at Waterfall.
@@MosesMatsepane this not you dont know the property laws of your country 🇿🇦🇿🇦😇
