Retail Directory and Buyer's Guide
Published since 1990, the directory has grown to include about 500 suppliers of 860 categories of sport, outdoor and leisure equipment, clothing and footwear to the Southern African retail trade.
All product categories sold by the retailers in the above industries are covered, including fishing tackle, which used to be covered separately in Tackle Trader.
Due to the popularity of this directory, we unfortunately have to control distribution and it is only available to advertisers (more than 20% of all suppliers) and Southern African retailers selling sport, outdoor and leisure goods. Contact us for detailed information about our readers and where they are based.
If you sell sport, outdoor or leisure equipment, clothing or footwear to the public, please contact us to find out about subscribing to the Retail Directory. If you supply these goods to retailers in Southern Africa, you can also contact us to find out more about listing or advertising in the Retail Directory.
