Deep Dive: David Jones is facing some tough times ahead of Christmas, with speculation mounting that the retailer could close stores due to financial pressure.
This week, the company failed to meet the deadline to file its accounts with the corporate regulator for the second year in a row, following a $95 million loss for the 2025 financial year and a $10 million emergency loan to reach December.
In this episode of The Briefing, Tessa Randello is joined by Professor of Consumer Behaviour and Retail Marketing at QUT, Gary Mortimer, to chat about what the future of the 188-year-old institution could look like and what possible store closures could mean for customers.
