Summary
"Celebrating the centenary of Wesfarmers Limited, this is the incredible story of how a humble farmers' co-operative with a paid-up capital of only £2,052 evolved into one of Australia's top ten companies. Based on interviews with scores of past and present staff and the families of the company's founding fathers, Wesfarmers 100: The People's Story 1914-2014 highlights the many surprising, sometimes controversial and always colourful events that accompanied the co-operative on its extraordinary journey. Rich in fascinating personalities and marked by memorable events, this book is not only a fitting tribute to the company's founders, its bold leadership and its dedicated workforce, but also holds up a mirror to Australia's industrial development.
