The pandemic has jump-started e-commerce in South Africa. One of the biggest winners may be Takealot.com, a local e-commerce website that launched nearly a decade ago and later became part of Naspers, Africa’s biggest company by market capitalization. Revenue at Takealot reached $238 million in the six months that ended Sept. 30, its most recently reported period. That’s up 41% from the same period a year earlier. Developments such as same-day delivery of groceries and the ability to collect packages when and where convenient have paved the way for a growing number of South Africans to carry on from the comfort of home amid varying levels of a nationwide lockdown designed to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus.
