The Stellenbosch Municipality Swop Shop programme continues to grow and enjoy overwhelming success, especially in the Klapmuts area. This project has been so successful that the Municipality acquired a custom made trailer to use as mobile shop for this project. Executive Mayor, Gesie van Deventer said: ‘’The success of the Swop Shop program is due to the cooperation and investment of residents in their own area. This project enables us to make a positive socio-economic investment in the community and demonstrates how beneficial mutual cooperation can be.”
The new Swop Shop trailer was officially launched in Klapmuts recently. This trailer has been custom designed and made by Mr Peter Price, of Priclo Trailers, for the express purpose of using it as a mobile shop. The trailer consists of shelves and clothing rails where all the stock available for purchase (via coupons) can be stored and displayed. The trailer opens up, allowing customers to access the shop and purchase the items they are interested in.
