Shares in vacuum cleaner retailer Godfreys have fallen to $A1.015, compared with an issue price of $A2.75 in late 2014. However, major shareholder John Johnston is upbeat about the outlook for the group, and recently increased his stake to 24.9 per cent. He notes that there will always be demand for vacuum cleaners, while consumers are now replacing these appliances more frequently. Johnston has had an association with Godfreys since 1936.
