    Briscoe Group managing director Rod Duke is confident of a turnaround despite expecting a drop in profits

    Briscoe Group managing director Rod Duke is confident of a turnaround despite expecting a drop in profits

    1 August 2024
    The retail giant says underlying net profit after tax is expected to be just below 2023's numbers, but are expecting it to exceed 40-million-dollars.

    But their six-monthly sales increased for the fourth successive half-year, reaching about 372-million-dollars.

    Duke says a turnaround is possible -- but only when the wider economy also does.

    He says the suburbs need to feel more secure about outgoings -- like insurances, wages, inflation and petrol prices.
