PICK ‘n Pay on Monday night opened their first store in Cape Town’s central business district in 33 years. The event was attended by city mayor Gerald Morkel, council officials, businessmen and VIPs. Guests were entertained by members of the Cape Minstrels in a colourful and noisy evening at the Picbel Parade, where the store is located. Morkel said the opening was proof investors’ confidence was returning to the CBD. – Sapa
