Going nowhere: critics say Country Road's new owners have run down the business and the brand
Article Abstract:
There has been a significant slump in the performance of Australian clothing and homewares retailer Country Road. Some observers feel that this can be attributed to poor management, with the firm having had three chairmen and three managing directors since 1998. Others believe that the brand should be repositioned.
