WH Smith on the move again in Australia?

2015 is not even a month old and I’ve heard rumours from two sources of another newsagency channel related WH Smith acquisition being imminent.

WH Smith had a busy 2014 with acquisitions of Wild, Kennys Cardiology and Supanews. This latest rumour, if true, will be the biggest yet.

    It seems they like the franchise structure. I reckon they are interested in control and prime space mainly. That would point in only one direction.
