BUCO Shayandima is a building materials and hardware store on the R524 outside Thohoyandou in Limpopo. Unlike many retail chains, BUCO publishes a direct number and full trading hours for every branch, so you can reach this store rather than a national line.
Official contact channels
- Telephone: 015 964 1662
- Address: R524, Thohoyandou, Limpopo, 0950
- Monday to Friday: 07:30 to 17:00
- Saturday: 08:00 to 14:00
- Sunday: 08:00 to 12:00
The store opens at 07:30 on weekdays, half an hour before ordinary retail hours, and it trades on Sundays. That early start matters if you are collecting materials before a day on site.
What this organisation provides
- Building materials including cement, bricks, timber and roofing
- Hardware, tools and fasteners
- Plumbing and electrical supplies
- Paint and finishing products
- Trade accounts and bulk supply for contractors
For a delivery of bulk materials, confirm the yard cut-off rather than the store closing time. Loading generally stops before the doors close, and arriving at 16:55 for a load of cement is not the same as arriving to buy a tin of paint.
Address and operating information
- Located on the R524, the main route through the Thohoyandou area of the Vhembe District
- Postal code 0950
- BUCO operates a national branch network with stores across South Africa and into Namibia
- Other Limpopo branches include Phalaborwa, Thabazimbi and Polokwane
- Each BUCO store publishes its own number and hours rather than sharing a national line
Building materials pricing is quoted per store rather than nationally, because delivery distance and local stock both feed into it. A quote from another branch is not binding here.
Support and escalation routes
- Orders, stock and delivery queries: the branch on 015 964 1662
- BUCO forms part of The Building Company, within the Pepkor group
- Defective goods carry a six-month remedy under the Consumer Protection Act, with repair, replacement or refund at your choice
- Unresolved retail complaints go to the Consumer Goods and Services Ombud on 0860 000 272
- Cement, and much electrical and plumbing product, must meet SABS standards; the NRCS enforces compulsory specifications
- A dispute with a contractor who bought materials on your behalf is a matter between you and the contractor, not the merchant
Keep the delivery note as well as the invoice. On bulk materials the quantity actually delivered is the thing most often disputed, and the signed delivery note is what settles it.
