“Hi Bradley, congrats on your appointment. I have no doubt that you'll add value to your organisation. Listen 10 times, learn, learn, learn and learn some more, every day. Read the Shoprite group annual reports to learn more about the strategy, vision and culture of the organisation."

@Stan HJorwitz said:

“We all start somewhere. At school at age 16, I held two jobs. Saturday morning sales assistant at Edgars and Sat afternoon I worked at the racecourse till 7pm.”

@Armande Kruger said:

“Bradley, the door has opened. What happens from here on is entirely up to you. Don't treat your job like you are a casual, treat it like you are the owner of Shoprite. Do not do what you are asked to do, do more than what needs to be done.”

@Flo Molepo said:

“Congratulations.”

@Samm Marshall said:

“There is no limit to where you can go. It might be a casual today, supervisor tomorrow, then trainee manager, manager, regional team and GM one day and CEO. If that's what you want.”
