Former Westpac CEO Gail Kelly will become a non-executive director of Woolworths Holdings on 1 October 2015. Kelly’s appointment is part of the South African group’s push to become one of the top retailers in the southern hemisphere. Australia accounts for about 40 per cent of Woolworths’ revenue, and its local assets include David Jones and Country Road. It also owns the Kirkcaldie & Staines department store in New Zealand.
