It was all happiness in Gumare on Wednesday as Choppies opened its 90^th store.

The newly opened store is said to have created employment opportunities for 60 people from the village, with another 10 recruited from the Shakawe Choppies supermarket to train the Gumare staff.

Speaking at the official opening, Kgosi Moitshepi Molelwa of Gumare commended the Choppies management for having seen it fit to open the supermarket in the village, which he said had grown in terms of population, hence the need for a supermarket.

Kgosi Molelwa also applauded the chain store for employment opportunities, noting that unemployment was high in the area.

Choppies CEO, Mr Ramachandran Ottappathu said the opening of the store would make an enormous difference in the lives of residents of Gumare and surrounding areas.

He thus urged the staff to enthusiastically serve the community for the success of the supermarket. Ends
