Woolworths??!! Yeah Woolworths owns it. Infact many stores and brands in NZ are owned by by the Ozzies. Take a look here at just one company that owns quite a few www.pep.com.au |

| 1134316 | 2010-09-03 11:48:00 | Woolworths has fully owned DSE since 1982! I am sure Dick got a good price! I think it is interesting how Australian owned stores, often names themselves after the original owner of the business. It isn't done so much in NZ, maybe that is a cultural thing. Imagine if the Warehouse was called Stephen Tindall (sir) |

| 1134317 | 2010-09-03 15:00:00 | In Australia the uncomfortable duopoly of Coles and Woolworths account for over 70% of retail spending. Coles markets Shell petrol, owns K Mart, Target, Liquorland etc etc. Woolworths, markets Caltex, owns Big W, DSE, Tandy, Dan Murphy, owns a String of pubs, Gaming machines etc etc |
