Bottled success

Article Abstract:

Pat Stone, former managing director of Carlton & United Breweries, increased the annual revenue of spring-water company Palm Springs from 6.5 million dollars to 25.2 million dollars in three years. Palm Springs sells spring water to homes and offices mostly in 15-litre bottles and is expecting even more growth from two partnership-based projects that are likely to attract new customers.

Pacific calm

Article Abstract:

Australia Pacific Exchange, a new stock exchange for small and medium sized companies, has failed to take off. The company expected to get 30 listings in the first year of its operations but managed to get only 2 since January 2005. There is little support from brokers to this fledgling stock exchange. Its competitor, Newcastle Stock Exchange, however, seems to be faring well.
