In 2008 during a protracted but ultimately successful negotiation on East Rand Galleria, an unprecedented number of Nike’s requirements in terms of lease terminology were attained (working with Old Mutual no less), and a site with great potential was secured for their Factory Outlet concept at a very reasonable rental.

Subsequently Alchemy has been able to secure a flagship store at Sandton City for Nike, as well as high profile premises at Centurion Mall, Cresta, The Zone, EastGate Mall, Tygervalley and the V&A Waterfront.

New Factory stores have followed at Mamelodi Crossing and Vosloorus, as well as a temporary store in Umlazi.

Major expansions and relocations were also negotiated at existing stores in  Woodmead, Access Park, Atterbury Value Mart and EastPoint.
