Household names, often with preserved archives, have had their company stories written by academics, journalists, and former senior employees. Broader national studies have analysed the role that big business has played in a country’s economic development. While sometimes this work has alleged oppressive anti-competitive behaviour, much has been written from a more positive perspective. Business historians, influenced by the pioneering work of Alfred Chandler, have implicated the ‘visible hand’ of large scale enterprise in national economic development particularly through their competitive strategies and modernised governance structures, which have facilitated innovation, the integration of national markets, and the growth of professional bureaucracies. While our understanding of the role of big business has been enriched by an aggregation of case studies, some writers have sought to study its impact through economy-wide lenses. This has typically involved constructing sets of the largest 100 or 200 companies at periodic benchmark years through the twentieth century, and then analysing their characteristics – such as their size, industrial location, growth strategies, and market share - and how they changed over time.

Many of our key brands are currently in growth and margins have benefited significantly from the move to increased off-shore sourcing. The board and senior management believe the strategy we are embarking on is the right one and we continue to work diligently to translate those efforts into externally observable results. Financial results Pacific Brands delivered a creditable result in a difficult market, driven by improved talent and capability, innovation, targeted marketing, off-shore sourcing benefits and continued cost control. The reported sales result of $1,615 million was down 7.3% but was heavily impacted by necessary structural changes, including business divestments and exits, and by brands being discontinued as part of the Pacific Brands 2010 transformation plan. Underlying sales (ie before the impact of acquisitions, divestments and brand discontinuations) stabilised to be flat in the second half of the year (down 1% for the full year) despite the general downturn in retail.
