Summer vibes in full swing: PEP unveils summer 24 collection Yesterday we were treated to the most beautiful summer's day in Cape Town — perfectly marking the launch of our new collection. Held at the stunning Terrace Rooftop, this event brought together influencers, media and industry experts for an exclusive first look at the collection. The excitement was palpable as we unveiled a collection inspired by the latest trends, brought to life through the dedication of our talented merchandise teams. This season, we’ve focused on elevating our designs across both fashion and homeware, with improved fabrication and meticulous attention to detail. Each piece, whether for your wardrobe or your home, is inspired by the latest trends and feels incredible to wear or use. Of course, this commitment to trusted quality and style never comes at the expense of affordability. Our teams are driven by the mission to make the unaffordable affordable, ensuring that our remarkable customers always receive the best value for their money. The feedback from our guests has been overwhelmingly positive, and we’re excited to see how our Summer '24 range resonates with our customers in the coming months. A big thank you to everyone involved in making this event a success, especially our dedicated teams whose hard work and creativity continue to push PEP forward. Here’s to the hottest summer ever for PEP! ☀️ #PEP #PEPSummerSquad #Summer24 #FashionLaunch #Influencers #PressEvent #FashionTrends

The PEP Mini Netball Festival program plays an important role in nurturing the next generation of netball players in South Africa and creating a love and passion for the sport. These festivals introduce young players to netball, providing them with a fun and supportive environment to learn and master the fundamentals of the sport. Engaging in sports empowers young girls to build self-esteem and confidence while developing crucial life skills such as teamwork and leadership. Through these festivals, we aim to inspire girls to aim high and build their confidence to succeed both on and off the court. PEP remains dedicated to nurturing these future sports stars and leaders, ensuring they have the platform to excel and succeed. Happy Woman's Day 💙 #PEP #PEPcares #PEPminiNetball #SASN #WomensDay
