Woolworths Sandton City Operating Hours

Sandton City trades later than most Woolworths stores

The Sandton City store closes at 20h00 from Monday to Saturday and opens from 08h00 on Fridays and Saturdays. That is a longer trading day than a standalone Woolworths Food store keeps, and it reflects the centre it sits in rather than a national Woolworths rule.

Sunday is the short day: 09h00 to 19h00.

It is a full-line store, not a Food store

Sandton City carries Clothing, Foods, Homeware and Beauty under one roof, along with a Coffee Cart, a WCafe, a seafood counter and a butcher counter, plus Woolworths Connect and Financial Services. Country Road, Trenery and Witchery trade from the same store.

This matters for timing, because service counters do not necessarily run to the store’s closing time. If you are going for the butcher or seafood counter, allow a margin.

Country Road Sandton is a separate listing

Woolworths lists Country Road Sandton at the same Sandton City address as its own store with its own hours and its own phone number. Two Woolworths-group listings at one centre is normal here. Confirm which one you actually need before you rely on a set of times.

Centre hours sit on top of store hours

Sandton City sets its own trading hours and the store cannot open before the centre does. Over Easter, Christmas and public holidays the centre’s schedule is the one that changes first, and the store follows it.

Getting there

The store is at Sandton City, 79 Rivonia Road, Sandton, 2146, on (011) 290 1011. Parking at Sandton City is the practical constraint on a Saturday afternoon rather than the store’s closing time.

Check before a special trip

Woolworths publishes these hours on its own store locator, filtered by province and suburb. Confirm there for public holidays.
