About Wesfarmers
As one of Australia's largest listed companies, we're proud of our longstanding contribution to Australians. Wesfarmers' achievements are deeply rooted in the desire to continually reinvent ourselves for the brands we own and operate, including leading retailers like Bunnings, Kmart, Target, Officeworks and Priceline. We recently expanded our online offer to bring together the Group's digitally native businesses, including the OnePass membership program, the Catch marketplace, and the Group data asset. Our work doesn't stop there, we also operate in the industrials sector which supplies the nation with chemicals, energy and fertilisers, and industrial and safety products. And we're currently developing an integrated lithium project, including mine, concentrator and refinery.
