The REDgroup owns Whitcoulls, Angus and Roberston and Borders in Australia, New Zealand and Singapore.
The plan to launch an ebook store (or stores) in Australia and New Zealand will certainly add some sizzle to the REDgroup as it toys with a possible public listing and exit for its private equity owner, Pacific Equity Partners.
