** South African Number One Bestseller ** A comprehensive work
based on personal interviews and insider knowledge - bound to
become a classic. The past three decades have seen a remarkable
rise of Afrikaners in business. With Koos Bekker at its helm, media
group Naspers began dominating the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and
was turned into a global consumer internet group. Johann Rupert
strongly extended Richemont's share internationally in the
upper-end market of luxury goods, while Christo Wiese and Whitey
Basson at Pepkor and Shoprite became Africa's largest clothing and
food retailers. Fortunes describes how these and other business
leaders, such as Jannie Mouton, Michiel le Roux, Douw Steyn, Roelof
Botha, Hendrik du Toit and a number of commercial farmers, built
their empires. It looks at their life and business philosophies and
what makes them such successful entrepreneurs. Recent years have
also seen the sensational collapse of Steinhoff International, the
furniture retailer led by Markus Jooste that destroyed some of
these fortunes. While Jooste is the topic of one of the chapters,
another looks at the philanthropic projects most of these tycoons
are involved in.
