Burst U.S. Embassy Prepared by: Australian Centre for Retail Studies Report Highlights: Within the global confectionery market, Australia is ranked 11th for sugar confectionery consumption and 9th for chocolate. Nine out of ten people regularly consume confectionery from both the chocolate and sugar confectionery categories. Approximately 55 percent of confectionery sales are through supermarkets, with the remaining 45 percent sold through outlets such as milk-bars, convenience stores and specialty shops. New products are introduced fairly regularly to the Australian confectionery market; however highly innovative products are less common and this may be an area that offers opportunities for U.S. exporters to be successful in this market. In 2001, Australia was the 15th largest export market for U.S. confectionery products.

  • THE SYDNEY GROCERY INDUSTRY, 1955-1965; a STUDY of COUNTERVAILING POWER Being a Thesis Submitted for Examination in Fulfillment
    THE SYDNEY GROCERY INDUSTRY, 1955-1965; A STUDY OF COUNTERVAILING POWER Being a thesis submitted for examination in fulfillment of requirements for admission to the degree of Master of Commerce in the University of New South Wales. John Jeffries Nightingale, B.Com.NSW. University of New South Wales, March, 1969. CERTIFICATION OF ORIGINALITY I hereby certify that this work has not been submitted for any degree in any other University or institution. J.J. NIGHTINGALE SUMMARY Chapter 1 defines the hypothesis to be investigated in terms of an extension of J.S. Bain's theory of industrial organisation and various theories about retailing. Chapter 2 describes the Sydney grocery industry as far as is relevant for the study. Chapter 3 sets out the behaviour of the Consumer Price Index in Sydney for selected times within the period. Chapter 4 analyses the industry as at 1955, positing initial conditions of an unstable equilibrium re­ sulting from the post war decade. Chapter 5 shows how the unstable equilibrium of price and outputs began to break down over the 1950-56 period. Chapter 6 sets out the technical possibilities open to various parts of the industry during the period of change, including some possibilities which have not been taken up. Chapter 7 follows the pricing revolution up to the entry of the countervailers, Woolworths and Coles, which destroyed the balance which had been emerging up to 1958. Chapter 8 shows how the entry of these two large firms affected the industry and how a new equilibrium began to emerge in the middle 1960s.

  • How Woolworths Started & Grew
    IN THE BEGINNING … On Friday, 5th December, 1924, Woolworths Stupendous Bargain Basement opened for business in Sydney’s Imperial Arcade. The opening advertisement said: ‘Every city needs a Woolworths: Sydney has it now. Every man, woman and child needs a handy place where good things are cheap.’ At 9am it seemed that every man, woman and child was waiting for the roll-up wooden doors of the store to open. Queues at the two entrances stretched out of the Imperial Arcade and along Pitt and Castlereagh Street. Inside all was ready. Staff had been at work since 6.30 am. Stock was piled high on the dark wooden counters, held in at the front by wire netting and separated by wooden dividers. The doors went up and the crowds poured down the two narrow stairways. Some, unhappily, went over the banisters. Ventilation was poor, it was a hot December day, and very soon customers were fainting and the lunchroom had to be converted to a casualty station. There were bargains galore. Cup, saucer and plate, usually 2/6 (25¢), only 9d (8¢); cut glass engagement rings 2/- (20¢); on the sixpenny (5¢) counters were scrub brushes, jars of Vaseline, vegetable shredders and all over Sydney people were carrying straw brooms. They were a special at 1/- (10¢) – unwrapped. FOUNDERS The founders of Woolworths Limited were (left to right) Harold Percival Christmas, Stanley Edward Chatterton, George William Percival Creed, Ernest Robert Williams and Cecil Scott Waine. Percy Christmas and Stanley Chatterton had opened a first-floor Frock Salon in the Queen Victoria Markets (now the Queen Victoria Building) at the corner of Market and George Streets, Sydney.

Of those, one-third (34%) was due to incorrect labelling, including undeclared allergens. The cost to manufacturers varies — depending on the scale, stage at which the food is recalled and any fines or penalties incurred. However, on top of the monetary loss, are other opportunity costs such as loss of sales and goodwill, along with brand damage. Food recalls are an unnecessary waste, and can be easily reduced to achieve better efficiencies and profitability by establishing robust, reliable and objective quality assurance (QA) processes with well-designed, in-line machine vision-inspection systems. This application paper explores the type and cost of recalls in Australia and how they can be avoided by establishing automated QA processes. Vision technology checks for many of the issues that lead to recall. It cost- effectively ensures your products are fit for purpose and shelf-ready when leaving your facility, and eliminates any potential for mistakes.
