Gloves off for Boxer. Plus: Pesto Princess preps for exit

In this episode, Bruce talks to the CEO of the discount retailer Boxer, Marek Masojada, about being with the business for more than 30 years, from when it only had five stores. Now at 500 stores, the group is still expanding - and eyeing next year’s final scrapping of exclusivity clauses in South African malls. Bruce also gets food startup tips from Kathleen Quillinan, who founded the successful food brand Pesto Princess 25 years ago. Since mortgaging the family house to build a factory, she is now slowly getting ready to exit the business, but first has big ambitions of something she wants to achieve. Schalk Louw, portfolio manager and strategist at PSG Wealth, gives his insights into a brand-new big food-sector deal that could see the owner of Blue Ribbon and Snowflake buy the owner of Bull Brand. He also talks gold. Certified financial planner Warren Ingram shares practical tips on building wealth. Also on the show: Why SA CFOs (especially women) are getting a big pay bump, and the fallout of the US-China trade war. This podcast is sponsored by Capitec.
