Mr Price is the first retailer to list on A2X

CAPE TOWN – Mr Price said on Tuesday announced that its shares will be tradeable on A2X from May 2.

The retailer said it will retain its primary listing on the JSE and its issued share capital will be unaffected by the secondary listing on A2X.

The Chief Executive of Mr Price Mark Blair said in a statement: "We have a long history of delivering value to our shareholders and we see this secondary listing as an opportunity to continue that trend. Listing on A2X markets gives more choice to our current investors and opens up an opportunity for us to attract potential new investors."

A2X Chief Executive Kevin Brady said in a statement: "We are pleased to welcome Mr Price to the growing list of companies on A2X.  The first retail company listing is an important milestone for A2X as we continue to attract listed companies from across various sectors."
