Woolworths reports fall in high street sales
Retailer Woolworths today revealed the departure of its chief executive and said high street sales fell 2.2% in the first 19 weeks of its financial year.
Woolies said it had agreed with Trevor Bish Jones that it was the right time to look for new leadership. He will leave in three months’ time after making a “significant contribution” during six years in charge, the chain said.
In a trading update, the company described the 2.2% fall in like-for-like sales at its retail arm as broadly in line with internal expectations.
