REVENUE STRATEGY - WOOLWORTHS

1. Woolworths Ltd., Australia's biggest retailer, is appealing a decision by New Zealand's antitrust regulator to block it from buying Warehouse Group Ltd., that country's biggest general merchandise retailer. Woolworths already owns New Zealand's second-largest supermarket chain
2. It plans a 40 percent reduction in annual carbon dioxide emissions and impact on the environment by 2015 from a current level of 3.7 million metric tons by
a) changing the company's car fleet to more efficient vehicles,
b) working with transport suppliers to lower emissions and
c) cutting annual water usage by 200 million liters within three years.
(less pollution = more goodwill = more revenue)
