Who owns supa iga

Here are just some of our stories. Paul, Anthony and Joseph Romeo are proudly following in the footsteps of their father Tony, in their family owned and community minded stores.

With three generations, and eight family members working together in this big store, with a big heart, Golden Apple IGA truly is a family affair. For brothers Richard and Antoine Rizk only the best will do and every day, they go to great lengths to provide their customers with fresh, local and affordable produce. Lee-Anne and Adam Woodgate always put their customers, who have become like family first, sharing their lives, love, and laughter every single day. Across the country many IGA stores are run by strong and passionate women, who are passing on their knowledge of the family business to the next generation.

Here are just some of their stories. Father and son and best friends Nick and Spero Chapley are well known for their world class supermarket but remain focused on what else they can do to serve their local community. From fleeing Poland in search of a better life, to running independent supermarkets that are passionate supporters of local producers and suppliers, Bob has and always will put local farmers first.

As family owned businesses, the story of stores passing from father to child is familiar to many IGA retailers. Here are just some of them. Witnessing rising rates of homelessness in the city, brothers Dashmir, Daim and Urim are committed to helping feed, support and restore the dignity of people doing it tough.

Manuel Xyrakis and the three generations of family who look after IGA Ainslie are passionate supporters of their local community. From sponsoring the neighbourhood footy club to prioritising local suppliers, the Xyrakis family story is one of loyalty and enduring connections with their beloved Ainslie. This includes many of your favourite brands; the ones you may no longer find on shelves in other supermarkets.

Police are asking for any public assistance in identifying seven men who were involved in a brawl and high speed chase that left an year-old Brisbane man in an induced coma.

The man was found on the side of the road in the suburb of Carbrook early Sunday morning, before being taken to the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital where he remains in a critical condition.

Read how misinformation about the Covid jab has allowed the Delta variant to run rampant across Australia's closest neighbour. The United States and China, the world's two largest emitters of carbon dioxide, have unveiled a deal to ramp up co-operation for tackling climate change. Measures will include cutting methane emissions, phasing out coal consumption and protecting forests.

Albumen print. Colonial history overflows with commodities. From the early s, wool generated extraordinary wealth for squatters and pastoralists and substantial investment in the Australian colonies. In the s, gold motivated tens of thousands of people to work the earth or service the diggings. With 76 Ritchies stores across the country's east coast, he's prepared for the new challenge.

We all became more price-conscious, and we all became more competitive," Harrison says. Part of Ritchies' success as an independent has been thanks to its close relationship with listed grocery distributor Metcash, which is both the company's largest wholesaler and a 26 per cent shareholder.

Its remaining shares are 45 per cent owned by the family of chief financial officer Mal Cameron and nearly 5 per cent by Harrison himself, with the remainder split between about former and current staff members. Ritchies' approach in recent years has been one of "premiumisation", focusing on providing its customers with higher-quality food, or products they would not be able to find in the country's big supermarkets.

This sees a standard Supa IGA store stocked with artisan bread, bespoke spreads and a veritable provedore of meats , cheeses and other savoury treats. But Harrison points to the business' consistent like-for-like sales as a sign of the company's true strength. So we have been very consistent if nothing else," he says.

On this metric, Ritchies is running toe-to-toe with the likes of Woolworths and Coles — an impressive feat for a retailer in a far more cutthroat section of the market. Once numerous, independent grocery retailers have been slowly disappearing from local shopping strips for the past few decades.
