Wize Books.

CD Hechter and his wife Hettie Hechter founded Wize Books straight out of articles with the first branch opening in Pretoria in January 2010. Instead of getting a job like their fellow article clerks, CD and Hettie had a passion for entrepreneurship.

They had started supplying academic books to collegues during their clerkship and the business idea grew from there. The Pretoria store has a unique look and feel as it is housed in steel containers while employing over 20 staff members.

In 2014 Wize Books was introduced to Varsity College by Valecia van Rensburg, Valecia identified the Wize Books competitive advantage which she sums up simply – better prices combined with service excellence.

These two outcomes are made possible by the execution of the Wize Books key values:

Integrity

Doing what is right

Passion

Living with enthusiasm and unwavering commitment

Accountability

If it is to be, it’s up to me

Quality

What we do, we do well

Ownership

Being accountable for our actions and inactions
