Edcon – one of South Africa’s historical retail giants, formerly behind brands like Edgars, Jet, and CNA. Edcon was once one of South Africa’s largest non-food retailers, operating brands like Edgars, Jet, and CNA. Founded in 1929, the company faced financial challenges and underwent business rescue in 2020. Parts of its operations have since been sold off, including Edgars and Jet, but the Edcon brand remains a part of South Africa's retail legacy. It played a significant role in shaping the fashion retail market and supporting local fashion through the years.
