Cape Union Mart specials and catalogues July 2025

Cape Union Mart was established in 1933, by Philip Krawitz. The first store, which opened on a corner in Cape town, was mainly focused on providing general merchandise to the military and fishermen in the area. His son, Arthur J. Krawitz, expanded this offering to provide South Africans with winter and summer clothing for their international travels. In 1970, Philip J. Krawitz, son of Arthur J. Krawitz and the current Executive Chairman of the Board, brought in multiple new clothing brands and also opened more stores. The company is sticking with their family business traditions, with the fourth generation – daughters, Martine and Amanda - continuing to build the business with the Cape Union Mart vision in mind. They not only have a loyal customer base, but seem to have loyal employees too. They employ more than 2000 people, and many have been with them for more than a decade.

Today, they have more than 300 stores across South Africa, in cities such as Claremont, Richards Bay, Cape Town, Knysna, Stellenbosch and Vredenburg.

Cape Union Mart falls under the Clothing, Footwear, Sport category along with other stores such as Ackermans, Foschini, Jet, Markham, Mr Price, MRP Sport, Spitz, Sportscene, Sportsmans Warehouse and Superbalist. Their trading hours will depend on the shopping centre in which they are located, but most stores trade from 9h00 to 19h00 from Monday to Saturday, and 9h00 to 17h00 on Sundays.

Just before the winter season begins, you can expect a Cape Union Mart sale, where you can find all these clothing items and more, at discounted prices.
