About Radius

Regional roots. Hands-on leadership.

Radius Sales and Merchandising was established in 2013 and represents selected companies on a regional basis where a regional service provider is required.

Our story

Built on long-standing regional experience

Radius is rooted in the experience of two independent regional agencies. Their combination created efficiencies while expanding the team available to principals across Central South Africa.

Staff continuity has helped preserve regional expertise, practical market knowledge and established relationships as the business has grown and adapted.
