Hendrik Johannes Petrus Visser's tenure with the retail giant spanned from January 1999 to June 2018, when his employment was terminated following an employer-led investigation that deemed him guilty of gross dishonesty.
In the wake of his dismissal, Shoprite escalated matters by filing not only criminal charges but also a civil case against him in the Western Cape High Court, seeking recompense that reportedly exceeds R33 million from Visser and several of his coworkers.
The heart of the matter lies in Visser’s attempt to withdraw over R2m from the Retail Provident Fund, a claim that was summarily dismissed, prompting him to seek intervention from the Pension Fund Adjudicator (PFA).

Many of these railway lines are underutilised or abandoned, with over 30% of Africa's rail infrastructure currently inoperable. With trade volumes projected to grow significantly, the urgency to revitalize rail infrastructure is clear.
