The Metrogo branding (which was used for the indefinitely closed Strawberry Hills outlet) will be replacing the Metro branding at the existing Ampol Woolworths sites, as well will also be applied at future/refurbished (ex-Foodary) Ampol Woolworths Metrogo sites throughout 2022.

Where will people get their snow gear now?
Sounds like an expensive rebrand, but what for?
Differentiation from their Metro āsupermarketsā?
I was looking at the prices for a snowfield trip, for under a week, and we ended up switching snow for sun, booking Port Douglas 5 star resort and still cheaper. Crazy expensive. We got Melbourne to Cairns flights for $30 in that Jetstar sale they had the other month.
I know that first one was a brand positioning video rather than an ad, but my god, that just kept going.

Amazon is about to crack $2b in revenue. Would be interesting to see a analysis to where this market share is coming from. I assume a small portion is across all major players.
The likes of Catch, Kogan, online book stores are probably at risk.
Catch would probably go before Kogan.
Anyone know the location of the other 4 sites? Dandenongā¦.and ??
Two fulfilment centres in Dandenong South and Ravenhall, as well as two delivery centres in Mulgrave and Tullamarine.

Seeing this Prime West Shopping Centre at Edgeworth in Lake Macquarie made me think of Seven Westās takeover of Prime7. Image from Google Street View.

The new Lego concept store will be on level 2 of Melbourne Central, next to the existing sports good precinct. Here is a photo.

given catch.com.au is part of westfarmers if it came to a battle of money i see kogan losing
Kogan has a bad reputation when it comes to returning faulty goods or getting them to honour warranty returns. I donāt know a lot about catch but with the backing of West farmers they should have a higher chance of success. Just depends on how many investors are able to inject cash into Kogan. Recently they havenāt been going as well. They over ordered to cope with the supply chain challenges.
Out of the 3 major players, Amazon, Kogan and Catch i donāt think Kogan will last unless they improve their service.

Agree, Kogan is the last i would buy from out of those 3. Iāve heard the same thing re service and also re the quality of their own branded goods eg TVs
yeah ive heard they just get whatever panels are going cheap and slap some cheap gear around them. i know of one person who had major issues with a TV and was asked to take the back off and send in photos of the insides! defiantly built to a price, not to a quality
