Spinning on the axis of growth in keeping with the ever-changing scenario of global trends, Sekaar’s was established in 1978, as the first venture in Les Cannelles, Seychelles. Offering a wide variety of products, Sekaar’s designed their module to give their customers a spectrum of choices to suit different lifestyles and tastes. With a professional and dedicated team, Sekaar’s channeled their resources and dedication into a sister concern in 1982. Evolving over an area of 1200 square feet, their progressive store flourished into a supermarket under the name of Foret Noire Supermarket. Foret Noire Supermarket transformed its concept into a wider range of hand-picked products selected with care to cater to various segments of society with the appeal of a contemporary selection merchandised from foreign locales.

Inspired by the response and the versatile nature of the enterprise, the company expanded its horizons with their third venture in 1985, S. K. Mini Market with resounding success and was soon converted into an electronic, electrical products and garments showroom under the name of Digital Lifestyle located in the heart of city at Market Street. Rejuvenating their identity with an infinite outlook, the company launched Imports and Wholesale businesses in 1988, under the name of S. S. P. Imports and leveraged their expertise with the success of reaching out to cover and provide the needs of the consumers in Seychelles. With the intention of catering to a more elegant and sophisticated clientele, Sekaar’s Super Market was structured in 1993 at Les-Cannelles to reflect a revamped image that attracted a vast shopping segment.

With a view to achieving a premium position towards the growth of Retail Business Development and Retention of their clientele, the fruition of plans became a reality with the Port Glaud Super Market in the year 2005. Situated in the densely populated area of Port Glaud district, the fourth new shop opened out avenues of a pleasant and spirited brand language as an experience for the people of Seychelles as well as the visitors. Taking a powerful stance, the company energized its image with a fifth shop in its completion stage with the inauguration planned for July 2009 at South Bay of Seychelles. Conceptualized as a shopping paradise, this fifth concept would draw in crowds as the biggest shopping arcade in south Seychelles.

Backed by a strong foundation of innate business acumen and an enterprising nature, Mr. Somu Sekar Pillay, as a successful entrepreneur has launched his flagship companies in South Mahe, Port Glaud and Les Cannelles. Making an impact in the business arena, Mr. Pillay holds the respect and honor of a commendable standing in the social, political and administrative circles of Seychelles. Remembering roots, the climb to success and preserving a rich and collective past, Sekaar’s, as a household name, has embedded golden achievements of their unique and remarkable history that holds memories and milestones. The company welcomes its patrons to travel with them through a memorable journey that began in 1978 to its present status of a celebration of catering to the community with a kaleidoscope of niche products of value and quality.
