Checkers has been named the strongest South African brand in the 2025 Brand Finance report with a Brand Strength Index score of 97.7 out of 100. 🔥🔥🔥 This accolade is based on “outstanding domestic brand perceptions, including perfect 10 out of 10 scores in ‘brand I love’, engagement, consideration, recommendation, and ‘word of mouth’”. “At the heart of the Checkers brand is the relentless pursuit of better and better for our customers. Every day, we live by the pulse of the incredibly inspiring South Africans we serve, constantly looking for new ways to enable more South Africans to live better. We aim to offer unavoidable value and a world class shopping experience, made effortless. If, in doing so, customers choose us, we are thrilled and when customers reward us by embracing the brand, from Checkers Sixty60-themed kids’ parties to weddings, it’s the ultimate reminder of why we push boundaries and we’ll keep raising the bar for them,” says Ilze Bylos, Chief Marketing Officer.
