The stores offered a broad selection of freshly baked goods, coffee, snacks, drinks, and daily essentials alongside fuel and lubricant services.<\/p>\n

The first location opened at the Shell Village service station, with additional sites planned for rollout in the coming months.<\/p>\n

The partnership formed part of Vivo Energy Botswana\u2019s broader strategy to enhance customer experience by expanding the one-stop-shop model across its Shell service stations.<\/p>\n

Over the past year, the company had deepened this approach through collaborations with quick service restaurant and retail partners.<\/p>\n

Two months earlier, Pick n Pay had transitioned its 13 franchise stores in Botswana to corporate ownership, reinforcing its commitment to delivering an improved shopping experience.<\/p>\n

The move aimed to upgrade stores, improve service, and expand the selection of fresh and quality products available to customers.<\/p>\n

Pick n Pay Botswana Managing Director, Leon de Lange, said the collaboration reflected the alignment of both companies\u2019 visions for the future of convenience retail.<\/p>\n

\u201cPick n Pay Go was about making shopping quicker and simpler for customers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis partnership allowed us to extend that convenience to more people and offer everyday essentials in easily accessible locations. It reflected Pick n Pay\u2019s confidence in Botswana\u2019s economic stability, sound governance and long-term growth prospects and underscored our commitment to growing the company\u2019s investment and operational footprint across Southern Africa.\u201d<\/p>\n

A new partnership between Vivo Energy Botswana and Pick n Pay redefined convenience for motorists with the introduction of 24-hour Pick n Pay Go stores.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

De Lange added that Pick n Pay\u2019s direct presence in Botswana strengthened its ability to deliver value and choice to customers while driving innovation and operational excellence in a growing retail market.<\/p>\n

Vivo Energy Botswana Managing Director, Sesupo Wagamang, said the partnership demonstrated both companies\u2019 understanding of evolving consumer needs.<\/p>\n

\u201cCustomers value speed, accessibility, and quality. Today\u2019s motorists want more than fuel \u2013 they want a convenient space that serves their daily needs,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added that each new partnership brought wider benefits to local communities. \u201cEvery new retail partnership we established created employment opportunities and stimulated activity within the local economy.<\/p>\n

We were proud to be part of a value chain that supported communities and strengthened Botswana\u2019s retail landscape,\u201d Wagamang said.<\/p>\n

The forecourt partnership between Vivo Energy Botswana and Pick n Pay marked a new chapter for Botswana\u2019s retail sector, setting a benchmark for smarter, faster, and more convenient shopping experiences. As both companies continued to expand their collaboration, the initiative positioned them at the forefront of redefining modern convenience retail across the region.<\/p>\n

Vivo Energy Botswana and Pick n Pay joined forces to usher in a new era of convenience retail with the launch of Botswana\u2019s first Pick n Pay Go store.<\/p>\n

The collaboration brought together two trusted names in fuel and retail to deliver quality products and services under one roof.<\/p>\n

The new Pick n Pay Go format was designed for customers on the move and operated 24 hours a day.<\/p>\n
