Satellite warehousing hubs reduce transport costs on certain routes. SPAR has the most stores in urban residential areas in South Africa.<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t<p>Distribution centres serve regions from a centralised location and usually consist of warehousing, cold storage and packing stations. Four distribution centres deliver to neighbouring countries. Nationwide, the Build it (Imports) and S Buys distribution centres supply building materials and pharmaceutical products respectively.<\/p> \r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<p>South Rand is the largest distribution centre in the group at 61 000m<sup>2<\/sup>. South Rand, North Rand and Lowveld\u2019s inland distribution centres share a recently completed, consolidated, inland slow-moving warehouse, known as the ICC. Most of the distribution centres own some corporate retail stores or temporarily run stores under management contracts. South Rand owns and operates the majority at 30 retail outlets (excluding stores administered by our distribution centres).<\/p>\r\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<p>The Build it distribution centre operates on the SPAR system and uses third-party distribution for deliveries outside KwaZulu-Natal.
