NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS
Shareholders are advised that Pick `n Pay Retailers (Proprietary) Limited
("Pick `n Pay") is investing US$13 million into TM Supermarkets (Private)
Limited ("TM") and in so doing Pick `n Pay is increasing its shareholding in TM
from 25% to 49%. This investment by Pick `n Pay has received the approvals from
the Reserve Banks of Zimbabwe and South Africa, the Ministry of Youth
Development, Indigenisation and Empowerment, the Zimbabwe Investment Authority
and the Competition and Tariff Commission. The Group would like to express its
appreciation to all regulatory authorities for their assistance in this
transaction.
TM will utilise this US$13 million investment to update and refurbish existing
stores and the public will notice changes in TM's supermarkets in the coming
months. Pick `n Pay's increased shareholding in TM will see TM accessing Pick
`n Pay's buying strength, where necessary, as it is TM's intention to increase
its local supply base. In time there will be the establishment of a number of
franchise operations which will create employment opportunities. The TM brand
will be retained as it is a key brand in the market though certain strategic
stores will be re-branded Pick `n Pay. Together both Pick `n Pay and Meikles
will ensure that TM is adequately capitalised to fund its operations.
