Staff Writer • Jan 31, 2019

Matrix Warehouse is one of South Africa’s largest independent computer retail chains. The company was founded in August 2000 and started trading in 80m2 store in Alberton. Recognizing the need for reliable and cost effective computer supplies and services, the company started expanding its store base in 2001, when 4 additional stores were opened. In 2004 the franchise model was introduced and to date Matrix has 23 owned branches and 52 franchise stores country wide. The Head Office Store and Warehouse is still based in Alberton but the premises have now grown to 12 000m2.

Matrix Warehouse has 4 main hubs which are used for distribution to our franchises throughout the country. They are based in Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and George.

Over the past 18 years Matrix Warehouse Group has built up a valuable reputation for professionalism, quality and service delivery. The business has always been run with the philosophy of being owner managed, a principal that is also driven in all the franchise stores. The culture and values of the company ensure that the key focus of the business remains customer service delivery.

Matrix Warehouse recently launched its new refreshed brand at the Alberton store and will be rolling this out to all stores nation-wide. The new look is aimed at offering clients not just a destination store but an in store experience that will leave you in awe. Matrix Warehouse focuses on providing solutions for all our customers’ needs ranging from home, school and varsity users as well as to the SMME.

Matrix Warehouse also boasts an assembly line that can build PC’s to customer specification. Our in-house technicians and call-out technicians can assist with technical queries, installations, upgrades and repairs.

Join our dynamic team today! Don’t take our word for it, we asked our Franchise owners what made them decide to join the Matrix Warehouse team & what words of wisdom they could share with prospective owners.Here’s what they had to say.

Duncan Pringle from Amanzimtoti, Carnival Mall, Sunward Park, Constantia Kloof, Edenvale & Meadowdale
“After many years in the IT industry I decided it was time to go out on my own. I was lucky enough to have a friend already involved in the Matrix Warehouse franchise who was very successful and who motivated my decision to open a franchise, given my background and the support offered from the Franchisor. To prospective owners, I can only say this: Use the vast knowledge at your disposal, both from the Franchisor and from your fellow franchise owners. There is a lot of information available to you, what works for one franchise does not necessarily work for another but what you learn from these sources will greatly assist you in finding what works for you.”

Hylton Ackerman from Rustenburg
“I have been a franchisee of Matrix Warehouse Computers for about 15 years. It is such a pleasure being part of a group that really cares about their people. The Matrix Warehouse brand is a well-known name in every household. They make it their mission to provide the best products, service and price to the customer. I am proud to be a part of such an amazing brand.”

Michael Hough from Park Meadows, Lambton & Stoneridge
“A franchise system helps you with all the unknown elements of a new business, Matrix Warehouse has been in business for almost 19 years so the formula is tried and tested. Opening a franchise can be very rewarding, but do not think you do not have to put the effort in to make a success of your business.”
