Retail therapy for all tastes

Furnishing a home with everything from groceries to gardening tools can be a tedious task. However, Agra Hyper in Lafrenz, makes it easy by offering a wide range of essential items for homemaking, including construction materials, pet medications, groceries, and much more.

We recently visited Agra Hyper to gain insight into their products.

Speaking to Agra employee Jacques Kamati, he said that when it comes to paint, the significance of primer and its different application methods cannot be underestimated. “There are different types of paint available depending on the surface you want to protect, such as concrete, metal, or even wood. These paints are designed to provide a long-lasting and reliable barrier against moisture, preventing leaks and water damage.”

There are also various kinds of waterproofing products available.

“In Namibia, we experience harsh weather conditions, with heavy rains and strong winds that can damage our homes and farms. That’s why it is essential to invest in waterproofing solutions to protect our buildings and crops. Waterproofing your roof can prevent leaks and water damage to your home’s interior. It also helps maintain the structural integrity of the roof and increases its lifespan,” he said.

On farms, dams are used to store water for irrigation purposes. Waterproofing the dam prevents water from seeping through the walls and causing damage to the surrounding soil. At Agra Hyper, you can find a variety of waterproofing paints that can help protect your roofs and dams.



Building equipment

Building a house or renovating an existing one is no small task. It requires careful planning, a good eye for design, and, of course, access to high-quality building materials. Whether you’re a professional contractor or a DIY enthusiast, finding a reliable source of building materials is crucial to the success of your project.

Agra Hyper manager Corne van Niekerk, who is an expert when it comes to the various kinds of building material, said: “We have two kinds of roof sheets available: inverted box rib (IBR) and corrugated roof sheets, which are two popular roofing options commonly used in industrial, commercial, and residential applications.”

He explained that corrugated roof sheets, as the name suggests, have a corrugated profile that provides them with excellent strength and durability. These roof sheets are suitable for both roofing and cladding applications and are commonly used in residential, agricultural, and industrial buildings.

IBR sheets are designed with a square fluted profile, which gives them excellent strength and stiffness. These roof sheets are suitable for both roofing and cladding applications and are commonly used in industrial and commercial buildings.

Van Niekerk said that Agra also provides materials to surrounding manufacturers in the area, such as neighbouring trailer producers.

Van Niekerk said Agra is the ideal one-stop shop. “Firstly, we offer a wide range of products that cater to all your needs. From groceries to household items, electronics to clothing, and everything in between, we’ve got you covered.”

Secondly, he said Agra provides a convenient and hassle-free shopping experience. “Our store is well-organised and easy to navigate, making it easy for you to find what you’re looking for.”

Van Niekerk said the third reason is competitive prices that are hard to beat.
