Metcash’s Mitre 10 consolidates into Starcom

Mitchell & Partners was the previous incumbent on the Mitre 10 account.
The announcement:
May 19, 2010
Good!
Hopefully they start doing abit better advertising, M10 for the last 10-15 years has been making rash descisions and led them deep into debt, Mark Burrowes excellent leadership brought them to a point where Metcash would even look at investing and now it will be a two horse race Mitre 10 and Woolworths.
Bunnings has only gotten so far because in reality it’s had no opposition, well woefully under-capitalised opposition, and will fall to pieces in thecoming years.
ANY changes to Mitre 10 are a step forward and that is good for all our hip pockets and the building industry as a whole.
