The Ackermans story goes back as far as 1916, when Gus Ackerman opened the first store in Wynberg in Cape Town. His vision for the store was to create a place where customers could find great products at fantastic prices, which is exactly what Ackermans became. Ackermans was, subsequently, bought by the Pepkor Group in 1986. Today, there are more than 850 Ackermans stores in 5 countries, making us a leading value fashion retailer for the whole family - continuously setting the standard for value and affordability. With a wide selection of fashion for ladies, kids, babies, and men, as well as homeware, cellular, and key financial products, we’ll keep bringing value to your life every day.
