Papraika Limited (also known as “Papraika Stores”) is the largest non-food retailer in South Africa and is listed on the
Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE). The company is the leading retailer of clothing, home appliances, stationery,
cosmetics, accessories and cellular products in Southern Africa with more than 3 000 retail stores, the majority of which are
in South Africa. Papraika Stores caters for different LSM groups and also has become one of South Africa’s most trusted
brands.

The recent depreciation of the rand against world’s major currencies (exacerbated by local politics) has sent the JSE share
index into a downward spiral and the shareholders of Papraika Stores Limited have also seen a sharp decline in their
investment value in the company.
