The highest expectations were certainly met as hundreds of hunting and outdoor enthusiasts flocked in their numbers to a “one-of-a-kind shop”, Wildman Polokwane which officially opened its doors at Thornhill Shopping Centre on Saturday, 30 March 2019.
Browsing through the shelves stacked with all kinds of hunting and outdoor equipment and accessories, customers were well aware of the presence of owner, Eddie O’Reilly and his wife Marelize who strive towards excellent customer service while offering high quality products. Eddie is a qualified gunsmith, hunting outfitter and professional hunter while Marelize is a qualified personal assistant who left Hoedspruit in January on a mission of serving the Province’s hunters and outdoor enthusiasts from the City of Stars.
“I have known the franchisor, Frik du Plooy for many years and opening Wildman Polokwa­ne has been a dream since 2013. It was only about two years ago that things came together and the opening of the store became a reality,” Eddie said.
He added that his goal was to establish friendships through excellent and friendly customer service, driving Wildman Polokwane in a direction where it will be referred to as the ultimate and preferred “all-under-one-roof, one-stop-shop” in the region.
Wildman Polokwane specialises in firearms and ammunition of all kinds and offers Gunsmithing services and assistance with the motivation for obtaining a firearm licence. Their stocklist further consists of all kinds of hunting and outdoor accessories, safes, camouflage and hunting clothing, knives, optics and paintball accessories among others.
The O’Reillys are also excited to announce that besides Gunsmithing and Motivations, firearm training is part of their planning for the near future. Women can also look forward to an outdoor clothing range including shoes and handbags to be on display soon.
Wildman also offers financing options of 3, 6 or 12 months on all new firearms.
