It would be fairly safe to assume that very few investors if any expected that Botswana retailer Choppies Enterprises would be the best-performing share on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange JSE in 2025.
An increase of nearly 900 in the share price from 80 cents in January to almost R8 on the last trading day of the year was unbeatable.
The share had doubled from 80 cents in January to R1.60 by June, then started to run hard after the publication of the groups results for the year to June 2025 in the last week of September.
