The stores started going downhill sometime ago, service was poor, heavens you only had to look on the web! Great shame I loved it before the decline.

arrogant people. They were unapproachable.
There are many folks in this wonderful country of ours who are making great products. creating employment in the process – and subsequently need their brand to obtain recognition. Melissas did obviously not intend to do that. Woolworths they are not. They took great products and then put their name on it. I believe that you take a product with potential , promote that in your outlet and in the process enhance your standing as a responsible and insightful retailer as well as obtaining sales for yourself and the emerging brand. You give and you receive. Greed was at the root in my opinion. Why hide from people – your customers – where the product originated from. That is lying in a ……. sort maybe kind of yea that will pass for great business – got to drive the right car – have the clothes and chat to those happing people kind of way.
My opinion completely.

They were impressed by both. The Ballito one has become part of our lives. Sad news about the franchise.
