Chief Executive`s Comments                                                      
On behalf of the board of directors of Global Village the 2001 / 2002           
audited results are presented.                                                  
In last year`s annual report I stated that hype was out while performance       
and realism is in.  This cultural formula continues to dominate our             
activities as a business and has resulted in significant changes within         
Global Village in the past twelve months.                                       
These changes have included the disposal of our non-core food division          
resulting in a write off of R4 million.  We have similarly taken a              
conservative approach with our Emporium asset and Toys for Boys, writing        
both of them down by R2 million.                                                
Senior management has changed significantly with co-founder Gary Israelsohn     
leaving us, Carel van Reenen replacing Lenny Karpes as CFO, Angela Valente      
replacing Anelda Martin, while Faruk Waja and Anthea Sebba joined our           
executive board.                                                                
We launched the Market at Montecasino and took space at the Birmingham          
clothes show 2001.  No existing operations were closed down.                    
The new restructured Global Village is leaner and more focused than in the      
last 8 years. Constantly improving management and staff are providing the       
board with more confidence to expect delivery of financial results to exceed    
expectations and add up to significant earnings growth again.                   
Operating Results                                                               
For the second year in a row headline earnings grew again.  This year they      
improved by 47.6% per share and by the same amount in value.  Cash generated    
from operations grew from R2 million to just over R3.1 million.                 
Although we reflect a net loss for the year of R3.2 million this is entirely    
created as a result of the disposal of our loss making, non core food           
business for R1 and the conservative writing down of our Toys For Boys brand    
and Emporium business.  Neither of these represents any cash out flow but       
rather a strategic restructuring of the group`s business focus.  The balance    
sheet doesn`t adequately reflect the group`s liquidity. The access bond of R    
1.3 million  to funding the head office property was repaid and remains         
available should these cash resources be required.                              
Future Prospects                                                                
Trading conditions have improved since the beginning of 2002 and we are         
achieving growth in attendances at our venues at an average between 21% and     
25%. Only two of our existing businesses are operating in the red and           
measures to change this have been put into place already.  These are the        
Emporium and Market at Montecasino.                                             
No new markets are currently planned but the introduction of our trader         
facilitation and services business from May should start producing results      
this year by leveraging on a win-win basis our more than 3000 traders.          
The fashion business expects to grow our participation in Birmingham and is     
planning a 3rd fashion platform event this year.                                
Dividends                                                                       
No dividend has been declared or recommended.                                   
Basis of Accounting                                                             
These consolidated financial statements were drawn up in compliance with        
South African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice and the      
company has compiled with the requirements of the Companies Act, 1973 (Act      
61 of 1973), as amended.                                                        
Accounting Policies                                                             
The accounting policies as set out in the 2001 Annual Report have been          
consistently applied in producing these results.                                
JSE Securities Exchange South Africa ("JSE") Requirements)                      
The directors of the company ensured compliance with the requirements of the    
JSE Listings Requirements during the year under review.                         
Head Office Property and cautionary announcement                                
The group has acquired its head office property for R2.1 million from the       
controlling shareholders. The acquisition was funded by a loan from the         
seller and an access bond of R1.3 million.                                      
In terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Securities Exchange South      
Africa, this is a related party transaction that requires approval by the       
non-related party shareholders. Full details, including a resolution to         
approve the acquisition at the Annual General Meeting, will be included in      
the Annual Report to shareholders. A full announcement in this regard will      
be made shortly.                                                                
Accordingly, shareholders are advised to exercise caution until the further     
announcement is made.
