Case Study: Cape Union Mart accelerates payroll efficiency with Deel Local Payroll

How Cape Union Mart accelerates payroll and HR efficiency with Deel

Cape Union Mart, a leading retail company in Southern Africa, needed a better way to manage payroll and HR across a distributed workforce of 3,000+ employees. Its outdated system required up to four days of manual processing each month and constant support from external consultants to stay compliant across regions. Deel, using Deel Local Payroll, helped the company address these challenges.

With Deel Local Payroll, Cape Union Mart moved to a cloud-first payroll platform that enabled its internal team to take full ownership of payroll management while automating compliance and tax updates. Deel reduced payroll run time from four days to half a day, cutting processing time by 87%, eliminating consultant fees, and improving access for store and remote workers with mobile-friendly, real-time payroll support.
