The best places to shop online in South Africa
The 2016 PriceCheck Tech & E-Commerce Awards were announced at an event in Cape Town last week, with Takealot.com named as the overall winner.
Awards were also given to new entrants and established brands like OneDayOnly, SweepSouth, Funky Tights, bidorbuy, DHL, Zando, SnapScan, Uber, OLX, FNB, Travelstart, and wiGroup.
PriceCheck said it wants to recognise outstanding South African businesses and individuals in the e-commerce and technology spheres with its awards.
