The Shoprite Group has opened bursary applications for Retail Business Management and Pharmacy students for the 2022 academic year.<\/p>\n

Registered university students with a 65% aggregate or higher are encouraged to apply via the Group\u2019s Bursary and Graduate Opportunities page before 30 June 2021.<\/p>\n

Upon successful graduation, Retail Business Management and Pharmacy students will have guaranteed jobs at Africa\u2019s largest retailer, with strong career growth prospects.<\/p>\n

Retail Business Management<\/strong><\/p>\n

A bursary in Retail Business Management is a particularly strong offering for ambitious students looking to advance their careers. The Group is constantly opening new supermarkets across its Checkers, Shoprite & Usave brands, and this presents hard-working graduates with plenty of opportunities to move through the ranks to ultimately become Branch and\/or Regional Managers.<\/p>\n

Maphindela Sabela, a Retail Business Management graduate from the Cape Peninsula University of Technology, is currently a Trainee Manager at Checkers Jukskei Park.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the Shoprite bursary, I was able to pay for all necessities. The cherry on top has been the work-back agreement which guaranteed me a job upon graduation,\u201d Sabela says.<\/p>\n

Pharmacy<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Group\u2019s pharmacy division also offers promising career paths to motivated students.<\/p>\n

Upon graduation, Pharmacy graduates join the Group as interns for a year. This is followed by 12 months of community service, whereafter graduates return to Medirite as fully qualified pharmacists.<\/p>\n

In the 2020 academic year, the Group spent R17.3m on its bursary programme and supported 271 students, including 191 from previously disadvantaged backgrounds, of which 150 students are females.<\/p>\n
