Bramble refers to thorny plants of the Genus Rubus, in the Rose family ( Rosaceae) Fletcher engineered a brief turnaround in the company's fortunes. Fletcher abolished the shareholder discount card, on the basis that it had eroded margins while providing little benefit, and was unpopular with institutional investors. Since their introduction in the early 1990s, the card had induced a ten-fold increase in the number of Coles Myer's shareholders, with the overwhelming majority owning only small parcels of shares. [5]

Fletcher also engineered the acquisition of the retail fuel operations of Shell Australia with the fuel outlets rebranded as Coles Express, allowing Coles Group to counter the success of Woolworths' discount petrol operation.

Sale of Myer

In August 2005, Coles Myer called for expressions of interest in purchasing the perennially under-performing Myer department store business. Myer is Australia 's largest chain of Department stores retailing a broad range of merchandise including women's men's and children's clothing footwear and accessories There was significant interest from both Australian and overseas investors, including the Myer family. On 13th March, 2006, Coles Myer announced it would sell Myer to a consortium largely controlled by US private equity group Newbridge Capital, part of the Texas Pacific group. Year 2006 ( MMVI) was a Common year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar.

The sale was completed in June 2006.

With the sale of Myer, the parent company received shareholder approval to rename as Coles Group Ltd, effective 27 November 2006.

Sale of Coles Group

Coles Group planned to rebrand its assorted holdings under the Coles name, with plans to have all holdings other than Officeworks and Target rebranded by late 2007. This plan was not well received by investors, most of whom reportedly believing that such a significant change to the flagship supermarkets business would be too risky and cause an eventual decline in market share. (The plan was eventually put on hold in March 2007 due to the proposed sale of Coles Group. ) [6]

In August 2006, Coles announced that a group of private equity companies led by Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. (KKR) was looking to buy the company, with an initial proposal of $14. Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co (commonly referred to as KKR) is a New York City -based Private equity firm that focuses primarily on late-stage Leveraged 50 per share. The Coles board rejected the offer stating it significantly undervalued the company, and was conditional on a due diligence process, without a guarantee that the deal would go ahead. A second proposal of $15. 25 per share in October 2006 was rejected for largely the same reasons. [7]

In November 2006, long-term senior supermarkets executive Peter Scott was dismissed for an unspecified breach of the company's code of conduct. [8]

On 23rd February 2007, the company announced a downgrade of expected earnings and that it was considering ownership options, including the possibility of a full sale of the business or a restructuring such as a demerger. Demerger is the converse of a merger or acquisition. It describes a form of restructure in which Shareholders or unitholders in the parent company gain direct [9] On 20th March 2007, it deferred its plans to rebrand Kmart under the Coles banner and create supercentres, and subsequently paused its conversion of BI-LO stores to Coles Supermarkets given the lack of success of this move.

The share price at which the transaction took place was reportedly $16. 47, then 2. 2% above the market price. A bid for the entire company at this price would have valued Coles Group at A$19. 7 billion, well above the two KKR proposals announced in 2006. [11]

In May 2007, Coles reported its slowest sales growth in at least seven years with continuing poor performance from Coles Supermarkets and Kmart. [12]

On 2 July 2007, Wesfarmers announced it intended to buy Coles Group for $22 billion, the largest take-over bid in Australia. Wesfarmers ( is one of Australia ’s largest public companies and Australia's largest retailer with its headquarters in Perth Western Australia. The sale is expected to be completed in October 2007. [13]

In August 2007, Wesfarmers foreshadowed its plans for the restructuring of Coles Group following its anticipated takeover, including investment of A$5 billion, establishing three separate divisions (including a combined Bunnings/Officeworks "big box" retailing division), the possible sale of Kmart, and the exit of Coles Group from its head office base at Tooronga. Bunnings Warehouse is the Southern hemisphere 's largest Hardware chain with 223 stores Australia and New Zealand. [14]
