Edgars partners with Pargo to enable nationwide click and collect
South African retailer Edgars announced that it has partnered with logistics company Pargo to enable nationwide click and collect.
The retailer added that it will be adding over 100 of its own stores to the growing network of over 3,000 Pargo Pickup Points - becoming the largest pickup point network in South Africa.
Edgars, which was acquired by Retailability in 2020, stated that its customers are now able to collect parcels when it suits them without rearranging their day or rescheduling couriers as they would with traditional delivery services.
In addition to convenience, click and collect also offers customers living in difficult-to-reach areas, rural areas and informal settlements access to the wide range of Edgars brands and products, giving them the opportunity to shop online without the worry that they’ll either miss a delivery or not even qualify for delivery at all.
“Though e-commerce is growing exponentially in South Africa, delivery can still be tricky for many, especially for those living in regional or outlying areas. It is our aim to deliver on the convenience of online shopping by giving everyone an opportunity to easily get their order no matter where they are in the country. That is why a partnership with Pargo makes so much sense,” said Richard Mclennan, head of e-commerce at Retailability.
