The significant unknown in the future value of WRI shares is the future intention of RD1.com the recent purchaser of 19.9% of WRI held by GPG at $1.00 or a total $27m RD1.com is the Dairy Group, and soon to be Fonterra, subsidiary that manages the retailing of farmer supplies through Anchormart stores plus having an internet retailing presence. WRI could be a major, perhaps even key element, in the merging of a high proportion NZ farm supply services into a single entity retailing to all sectors of the primary industry. It is unlikely that the dairy industry vision for WRI will coincide with WRI's current vision of its future.
