Shoprite Group Plc.???
[edit]Hey there, just noticed you had changed the ownership details of Shoprite (Isle of Man) as far as I was aware it stil remains Nicholson Investments Ltd. or has it changed?? --Equalizer2011 (talk) 17:28, 25 October 2011 (UTC)
Nicholson Investments remains the largest shareholder. The name of the group of companies has changed to Isle of Man Enterprises plc from Shoprite Group. Same people, different name, that's all.

- Okay cheers for that, but could we put "Nicholson Investments Ltd." as "Parent" in the infobox? --Equalizer2011 (talk) 19:15, 25 October 2011 (UTC)
- The reference I added clearly shows the supermarket business to be a wholly owned subsidiary of Isle of Man Enterprises. Clearly Isle of Man Enterprises is the parent, the holding company whatever you want to call it. Nicholsons Investments Ltd is just a shareholder. Why the need to put it as parent? What's the relevance? Bopalula (talk) 08:09, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

Just to say thanks for correcting me on the WW1 manpower figures on Southern Rhodesia in World War I. I'm sorry for the mistake. I've altered the statement now; explanation's on the talk page. Cheers and happy editing! :) —Cliftonian (talk) 15:51, 7 August 2014 (UTC) |
