About Us
Built on Values, Driven by Community
The Build it Group was born from humble beginnings and has grown to over 400 stores across Southern Africa, proudly supplying quality building materials and supporting communities for more than 35 years. At the heart of Build it are core values of Family, Entrepreneurship, and Passion — values that guide everything we do. We believe in giving back through meaningful initiatives, such as sponsoring Under-13 Soccer development to promote youth wellness and a brighter future. Community upliftment projects, including school and home renovations, are a top priority for our group.
Yes We Can – More Than Just Building
As a division of SPAR Group Ltd South Africa, Build it operates through a voluntary trading model of independently owned stores, employing over 10,000 people across South Africa, Namibia, Swaziland, Lesotho, and Mozambique. But to us, it’s about more than just materials — it’s about possibility. Our mission is to turn “no” into “yes,” and “can’t” into “can.” With a can-do spirit, we aim to remove stress from the building process and empower our customers to achieve their dreams. When you ask if we offer great service, quality products, and expert advice, our answer is always…
YES WE CAN!
