Newsagent business works against newsagents

gns_newspower.JPGThis is the brochure form GNS to which I referred yesterday.

The exclusive offer from GNS is between 5% and 10% off selected stationery lines. It is offered exclusively to Newspower members but has been sent to other newsagents. Most items are priced less than OfficeSmart prices.

OfficeSmart is a GNS buying group for newsagents driving stationery – newsagents pay a premium to be part of OfficeSmart and are promised better pricing in return. Not this time.

As a GNS shareholder I am disappointed that they are using their resources to fund discounts for Newspower members to the detriment of their non Newspower members.

For a newsagent owned business it is sure making some odd decisions.
