New Santos Full moon Thursday at boss appointed Luis Feliu
Byron’s Main Beach Th e Mullumbimby-based wholefoods retailer Santos has appointed a replace- ment for general manager Jean Bous- sard who resigned suddenly last week. The announcement came in the wake of a fi ery meeting of company staff , owners and management days earlier. Ryan Hamilton, who managed the company’s Byron Bay warehouse for the past 10 years, has been named as interim general manager. Th e Santos board of directors issued a brief statement this week saying Mr Hamilton ‘knows Santos intimately,’ and would replace Mr Boussard im- mediately. Th e board said ‘everybody at Santos is doing their best’ and it was ‘grateful to all staff for their openness and dedication’. During the meeting, Mr Boussard, who was appointed to run the 30-year- old business a year ago, had off ered to stay away from Santos’s three outlets and work from home in an eff ort to ease tensions until a further extraordi- nary meeting was held. But that was not necessary as he re- signed four days aft er the meeting. Th e board in its statement said it More than a thousand people enjoyed the free moonlit screening of the surf movie Minds In The Water on Thursday, as part of the Byron Bay International acknowledged ‘the wonderful support Film Festival. The night also included a special appearance by surfer/musician/fi lmmaker Jack Johnson. Now six years old, the festival screened 200-plus for Santos from unit holders and the fi lms in fi ve venues over ten days.

Your questions answered... Has there been much community support for this? Yes! The community spirit is alive and kicking in our region! Thank you to all of you who see the power of this initiative, are having conversations, spreading the word and are visiting the website to leave their comments. Please continue...! I’ve heard there are other prospective buyers for Dennett’s IGA, besides the Mullumbimby Community. Is this true? In the Biggest Little Town there are always lots of rumours! We don’t know which ones are true. We just need to move as quickly as possible with as much community support as possible. How far down the track are you? The very next step is to fi nalise the legal agreement for the Founding Stakeholders. Then we can sign the contract for the purchase of the supermarket and pay the deposit, before anyone else does! Is there room for any more initial investors (Founding Stakeholders)? Perhaps. If you are a Sophisticated Investor who has a community heart, please get in contact with us.
Can I get more information about this initiative from the Dennett’s IGA store? Please don’t contact the owner or the staff as they are busy doing what they do best – serving our community! Please go to www. OurMullumbimby.org or call our team. Is this a done deal, or do you still need help? Yes – we still need your help! Our community is the backbone of this nd out initiative. Please go to our website to add your support – or to fi more. If the community buys the supermarket, will it change? How will we, the community, buy into our own supermarket? Who is paying for all the ads, website, legal, accounting, admin etc? Are the people working on this getting paid? What will the community get out of it?
