Angus & Coote is an Australian jewellery chain founded in Sydney in 1895 and listed on the ASX in 1952.[1] The retailer claims to be a leader in Australia for high quality jewellery,[2] with its 300 stores having a 20% market share as of early 2007.[3]
In March 2007, James Pascoe Group (JPG) completed a $A76m ($NZ87m) takeover bid[4] for the Angus & Coote chain,[3] including brands Amies in Queensland, Dunklings in Victoria and Edments in South Australia and Western Australia (all completely rebranded to Angus & Coote after November 2008)[2] and Goldmark. The Goldmark and Edments brands were part of Prouds The Jewellers, with Angus & Coote acquiring them in 1996 when JPG purchased the main Prouds brand.[3] At the time of the purchase, David Norman suggested one or more of newly acquired Angus & Coote brands could be launched in New Zealand. Goldmark is now included as a store-within-a-store at kiosks in selected Farmer stores.
The original owners of Angus & Coote, the Coote family, had owned the business for one hundred and twelve years before the sale, and became one of the most elite families in Australia, becoming a household name in Australia. The founder, Edmund James Coote with a net worth of $2B, passed the business down to his son Roy Rundle Coote. The business became extremely well-known and made it through international names. The last CEO from the family was Antony Edmund Rundle Coote, who expanded the business throughout the 70s-90s. They sold the company for $77M.
