Wynand van Niekerk started his first retail Camera shop, Foto Digital World, in the Kolonnade Shopping Centre in 2003. The Shop has moved to the Fin Forum Shopping Centre just across the street in 2015. We have now bought a building, October 2021, at Shop 12, 595 Breed Str. in Montana, Pretoria, Gauteng South Africa. No more moving or paying rent.
Bigger & Better!
Foto and HiFi World in the Irene Shopping Centre, Foto and Hifi World in The ECO Park Shopping Centre, and Foto And HiFi World in The Mall@Reds Shopping Centre were created to have more stores to be more convenient to the customers. But with the online shopping in South Africa, on the internet, getting more popular, it was decided to close all the branches and keep only one retail store Foto Digital World. This improved the profitability and that is how the shop can maintain the lowest prices in South Africa. We have now decided to keep one name for online shopping and for our retail shop: Foto Discount World.
