Influx of tourists to South Africa could benefit luxury sunglasses

Sunglass Hut expands its reach via Woolworths
Sunglass Hut is gradually expanding its reach by entering Woolworth stores in South Africa, despite owning multiple standalone stores across the country. In South Africa, Woolworths is a popular department store, so adding a Sunglass Hut concession is more likely to boost sales of luxury sunglasses.
