Dr. Razeena Omar, CapeNature Chief Executive Officer, reiterated, “We’re looking forward to offering the Black Friday deal to our visitors again. Over the last three years CapeNature has witnessed the uptake into the global retail trend. Year-on-year, CapeNature’s online booking portal sales have increased by 26%. Consumers are shopping online more due to the global COVID-19 pandemic concerns and the entity would like to take up this opportunity to strengthen our online offering, by diversifying clientele through affordability. The hope is that people will take up the opportunity to explore the province at these reduced rates, as we know the livelihoods of many South Africans have been severely impacted this year”.
