Have you ever wondered why PEP is so popular amongst South Africans? It’s mainly because they are the friendliest and most trusted retailer, offering wanted products and services at the lowest prices.
Margins are kept low to keep prices low so that more people are able to buy from them.
In addition, they operate a lay-bye system to help customers plan their purchases.
In this article, we are going to take a brief look at PEP’s history, their products and the products and services they offer.
