Interview: Chris Weylandts (CEO of Weylandts)

Loading player...
Mike is in studio this morning with Chris Weylandts to unpack the opening of Weylandts Sibaya at Reefside Lifestyle & Leisure on Saturday, 3 October 2026, and why the brand sees it as one of its most ambitious physical expressions to date.

The discussion explores Weylandts’ move towards destination retail (where architecture, interiors, furniture and hospitality come together in one immersive space); the KwaZulu-Natal coastline that shaped the store’s design; the decision to bring the Ballito and uMhlanga stores together under one roof at Sibaya; and what visitors can look forward to over the opening weekend and beyond.
