CAPE TOWN – Fashion retailer Cotton On Group announced that it has opened its first store in Botswana.

The retailer first appeared in the African market in 2011, when it debuted its first store the Clearwater Mall in Johannesburg. 

Jade Tremeer, Group Commercial Manager at Cotton On Africa said: We are very excited to launch our first store in Botswana. We believe that everyone should have access to the latest fashions that suit their unique style at affordable prices, without having to compromise on quality."

Cotton On has since spread with 170 stores across South Africa and Namibia by the end of 2018.

According to a report by Bostwana Unplugged, Botswana Investment and Trade Centre’s (BITC) chief operations officer, Reginald Selelo was at the launch event of the store.

Selelo said: “It is my hope that we will see more of these jobs created for Batswana and thus aid in addressing the challenges of unemployment… I am very excited at the skills transfer that will transpire between Cotton On Group and our people here in Botswana.”
