Major retail outlet Makro has launched its first stand-alone shopping app which will enable customers to purchase merchandise, liquor, and pantry items, remotely. The Makro Shopping App, available to Apple and Android users, gives customers access to over 120 000 products, a 30% increase in the outlet’s online product range since January. This comes after its parent company Massmart announced that it would invest 72% of its capital expenditure budget in e-commerce on 7 March.
Llewellyn Walters, Makro’s CEO, says the app was a natural progression following the growth of e-commerce on Makro’s website. “We were also greatly assisted by learnings from previous apps we have built in the Massmart group and the support of Walmart’s global tech team in Bangalore. India has been key to delivering this accelerated project,” he adds.
