Grocery shopping no longer has to feel like a chore.
A group of media got to enjoy a tour of the Checkers Hyper flagship store in Sandton City - the first of more to come - with Michelle Botha, the Deputy Divisional Manager for Checkers Hyper Gauteng.
The chic modern look of the store is complemented by state-of-the-art facilities.

This is what shoppers can expect:
- An in-store Kauai section, where you can get your smoothies or something healthy to snack on.
- Famous Wild Pacific salmon caviar served at the sushi bar. You can sit down and enjoy a lunch there.
