WELCOME TO
THE HEART OF SOMERSET WEST

Harnessing the charm of Somerset West’s ‘old town’, the Village Collective is a partnership initiative that aims to transform and renew the underutilised CBD into a connected place where people want to live, work, visit and shop. 

With The Village Garden - one of Somerset West’s hidden gems - forming a delightful gateway, the area currently spans the City Improvement District (CID) and precincts of Main Road, Bright, Caledon and Drama Street.

SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES

With a shared desire to restore a sense of community and pride in the historic heart of Somerset West, The Village Collective has grown to include a variety of businesses and organisations within the CID (City Improvement District).

Catching up with the Lion’s Square KwikSpar Family

If you’ve been around the block for a while, then Lion’s Square is one block on Main Road you’ll know all too well. The family-run KWIKSPAR at Lion’s Square has been serving our Village for nearly 25 years, and for the owners, family has been a core value since day one. We recently sat down for a coffee with Janine Fourie to find out more about the heart and soul behind KWIKSPAR at Lion’s Square.
