Appliance shake-up

Article Abstract:

Southcorp divested many of its household appliance brands, including Hoover, Chef, Dishlex and Vulcan as well as the distribution of Maytag. Email purchased most of the brands and now has about 60% of the appliance market in Australia. The move is likely to decrease the number of brands available in each product category. Services warranties will be honored by Email and other purchasers.
