Pantry by Marble Expands to Johannesburg South with New Bassonia Location
The Marble Group is bringing its signature blend of luxury and convenience to Johannesburg South. Following the success of its flagship hybrid store in Rosebank and the recent standalone launch in Hazelwood, the brand has confirmed its next footprint will be in Bassonia.
Scheduled to open on 22 January 2026 at the Omni Square Shopping Centre, the new store aims to transform the local retail landscape by offering residents the brand's renowned "fancy but easy" food and lifestyle experience.
“This has been a significant project for us; one we’ve been working towards for quite some time. Collaborating with our construction and design teams, we’ve created a space that reflects both the Pantry identity and the character of the community. With the final stages now underway, we’re looking forward to opening our doors in this area of Joburg,” says Gary Kyriacou, co-founder of Pantry, part of the Marble Hospitality Group.
