Business

The Warehouse operates discount retail department stores selling a broad range of non-grocery and grocery products. As of January 2005, The Warehouse employed 7,531 people in New Zealand. The Warehouse's corporate headquarters are located in North Shore, New Zealand. North Shore City (orange). ...

Apart from retail locations, it operates 2 distribution centres located in Wiri, New Zealand and in Christchurch, New Zealand. Wiri is an Auckland suburb. ... For other uses, see Christchurch (disambiguation). ...

In addition to its own operations, it also owns various brand names that are located within the stores. It has gardening facilities located in Auckland, Hamilton and in Christchurch. Along with its gardening brand Just, it also operates nearly 30 "in-company" brands. Schematic map of Auckland. ... Hamilton (Kirikiriroa in Māori) is the centre of New Zealands fourth largest urban area, and is the countrys seventh largest city. ... Christchurch (Māori: ) is the regional capital of Canterbury, New Zealand. ...

The Warehouse is publicly traded on the New Zealand Stock Exchange under symbol TWH.

Stephen Tindall announced in September 2006 that he planned to buy out other shareholders and take the company private, though this intention has been subsequently withdrawn following significant interest from competitors Woolworths Australia (who own Progressive Enterprises in New Zealand, New Zealand's second-largest supermarket chain) and Foodstuffs Co-operative. Both of these major competitors have recently acquired approximately 10% of the Warehouse's ordinary shares each and both have applications currently before the New Zealand Commerce Commission for clearance to potentially acquire up to 100% of The Warehouse Group. ^[4]

Competition

The Warehouse's chief competitors in the national retail scene include Supercheap Auto (automotive products), Farmers (upscale department stores), Kmart (discount department stores) and the Briscoes Group (sports and homeware store chains). Ironically, The Warehouse is now competing in the non-discount market. Super Cheap Auto is an Australian-based automotive retailer. ... This page meets Wikipedias criteria for speedy deletion. ... Kmart store at Kurralta Park in Adelaides western suburbs. ... Briscoes, properly, Briscoes Trading Group is a New Zealand retailer. ...

With the launch of 'The Warehouse Extra' at Sylvia Park, The Warehouse expanded into the grocery business (see 'Hypermarkets' section below), though it is unclear whether this enterprise will eventually be extended to a substantial number of other stores. Sylvia Park is a large commercial property development and shopping mall in the Auckland, New Zealand suburb of Mount Wellington. ...

Criticism

The Warehouse has always been heavily criticised for poor products and service.^{[citation needed]} In the early nineties, The Warehouse generally stocked low quality, easily breakable products. However, in recent times, the company has put pressure onto suppliers to increase the quality of their products.^{[citation needed]} Despite this The Warehouse has been known to have product recalls of items they exclusively sell a recent example is a brand of cycle helmets sold at The Warehouse that had the insulation detach from the shell of the helmet. As a result all Helmets were recalled and customers who purchased these helmets asked to return for a refund. [1] [2] Image File history File links Unbalanced_scales. ...

The New Zealand public view staff working at the Warehouse as second-class citizens, and are particularly rude and demanding when shopping in a store. Studies have been conducted that indicate that, on average, a shopper is more likely to be rude to a friendly Warehouse staff member, than they are to their equivalent at Briscoes.

The company operates a comprehensive returns policy. A "money back guarantee" policy (returns accepted for any reason) is available on most products, excluding underwear, pre-recorded media and perishable products. It is quite common to see long queues at the returns counter immediately after Christmas with customers returning unwanted or faulty Christmas presents. Some industry observers believe this is why The Warehouse has been so popular in New Zealand. This concept has not worked in Australia, particularly due to the fact that there are many other more well-established department store chains (K-Mart, Target, Big W). Australian stores no longer advertise a "money back guarantee." In late 2005, The Warehouse Group announced its decision to close its Australian arm.^[5] A pair of mens briefs Undergarments, also called underwear or sometimes intimate clothing, are clothes worn next to the skin, usually under other clothes. ... This article is in need of attention; please see the talk page. ... Kmart store at Kurralta Park in Adelaides western suburbs. ...

Big W is the second largest discount department store in Australia, with over 120 stores located nationwide. ... Year 2005 (MMV) was a common year starting on Saturday (link displays full calendar) of the Gregorian calendar. ...

The Warehouse has always been a popular target for shoplifters^{[citation needed]}; however, since the mid-nineties, security has been increased, including the introduction of security guards, surveillance cameras and plain-clothes security professionals.

The Warehouse has also been known to cause the closure of other local businesses in any area in which a new Warehouse store is opened.^{[citation needed]} It was once stated that for every job The Warehouse creates, another nine are taken from other businesses.^{[weasel words]} The most notable closures of businesses include the Deka Department stores and some Para Rubber stores in some cities.^[6] The management of The Warehouse dispute these claims. Wikipedia does not yet have an article with this exact name. ...

In May 2007 to mark the 25th Birthday of The Warehouse the company released 13,000 balloons from Dairy Flat. This sparked concerns from the Department of Conservation and other environmentalists as the balloons have been known to endanger wildlife. [3] [4] Dairy Flat is a rural district 8 km south of Orewa beach in the North Island of New Zealand, 28 kms north of Auckland city. ...

Australian Operation

In 2000, the company entered the Australian retail market. It acquired the Clint's Crazy Prices and Crazy Clarkes andretail chains. At the time of purchase, those chains had around 126 stores. 2000 (MM) was a leap year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

In 2003 the company built a $33 million (AUD) distribution centre in Queensland, to service the country. Later that year, the company introduced its Tui and Tolas inventory management systems from New Zealand. Year 2003 (MMIII) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

As of 2005, the Australian arm was still under-performing. Sales for 2005, were at $518.8 million (AUD) - compared with $567.3 million (AUD) in 2004. The Warehouse Group Limited announced in November 2005 that it had entered into a conditional agreement to sell The Warehouse Australia business to Catalyst Investment Managers and its parent PPM Capital Limited (together, Catalyst) and Castle Harlan Australian Mezzanine Partners, acting on behalf of the CHAMP I and CHAMP II funds (CHAMP) for A$92 million (NZ$99m). The new entity was known as Australian Discount Retail (ADR). As part of the transaction, The Warehouse Australia's Sydney Head Office would be sold to Investec Wentworth Specialised Property Trust. While the effective date for the transaction was to be the 27 November 2005, completion of the sale was expected in early 2006 and was subject to normal regulatory approvals.

Hypermarkets

"The Warehouse Extra" hypermarket logo

In June 2006, "The Warehouse Extra" opened at Sylvia Park, Auckland. It is the first of a planned chain of hypermarkets, at 135,000 sq ft (12,500 sq m). In a similar fashion to the Wal-Mart Supercenters of the United States, the foodmarket department aisles are placed at a perpendicular angle to the general merchandise. It is the first store to feature an in-store bakery, pharmacy and cafe, and instead of the usual tall industrial shelving, a more conventional store shelving system has been used. The store also features a lot less red than in traditional stores, but the familiar concrete floor still exists. The next branch of "The Warehouse Extra" was in Whangarei. The next to under go a rebranding is Te Rapa store in Hamilton City. The Warehouse Extra will potentially give The Warehouse an even bigger market share as many New Zealanders may choose to shop there instead of at local retailers, this will more than likely cause further closures to local businesses.

Financial results

The Warehouse went public in 1995. Since then the stock has climbed from $1.29 to $5.54 in 2005. During 2005, the stock dropped dramatically due to worse than expected results from the Australian operation. ^[7]

However, the company has not been without success. It is New Zealand's largest retailer and one of the largest companies in New Zealand in terms of annual revenue. It is well ahead of its nearest compeititors Briscoes and Farmers in terms of sales.^{[citation needed]} Various different explanations have been offered for this:^{[attribution needed]} Briscoes, properly, Briscoes Trading Group is a New Zealand retailer. ...

• The Warehouse has always had an approach of "cheap prices everyday, all the time". Or its actual slogan "where everyone gets a bargain". The stores are often cluttered with a lot of products, at extremely cheap prices, whereas its competitors' stores are organised and well set-out.
• The Warehouse benefits from economies of scale in manufacturing and logistics; the purchase of massive quantities from its suppliers combined with a very efficient stock control system help make The Warehouse's operating costs lower than that of its competitors.
• One particular aspect of the economy of scale is the aggregation effect, used in other businesses such as Bin Inn and Countdown, whereby The Warehouse sells as many different items as possible. This allows the company to grow revenue over its fixed cost base (more sales out of the same store). This is why The Warehouse began to sell low margin groceries.

...

TUI Inventory System

Tui - (Technology Used Intelligently), is an inventory management system developed for The Warehouse Group Limited. It is currently distributed across its entire network of 253 stores, and aids in keeping track of inventory and customer dispatch requests. Amongst Warehouse sales staff members, the current version of TUI is viewed by some as a poorly-designed, poorly-implemented application and stock figures aren't always reliable.^{[weasel words]}
