Credit: Dave Hunt/AAPConsultations with some of Woolworths’ corporate teams are expected to carry on throughout the week as the company pitches “proposals to expand our existing global capabilities and managed service partnerships”. “We have for many years had teams located throughout Asia and longstanding managed service arrangements in place,” Woolworths said.Be the first to know: Add 7NEWS as your preferred news source on Google“We regularly review these to ensure we are accessing the best global capabilities and lowering our costs, to ensure we are offering the best value for our customers.”The change comes as international giants such as Amazon start to gain momentum in the Australian market by offering a cheap and rapidly-delivered alternative.Woolworths in turn invested billions into transforming its supply chain in Western Sydney in an attempt to keep up to pace with online orders.The supermarket giant hopes the cost-cutting measure can increase its influence in the continent while also cutting costs for customers. Credit: Joel Carrett/AAP“As one of Australia’s largest employers in a dynamic and competitive sector, we consistently reshape our business and find ways to be more efficient, to enable us to continue to drive growth and invest in local communities,” the company said.It also expects to open 24 new stores across Australia and New Zealand in the coming year, which are tipped to create 2,500 jobs in the sector.This is despite Woolworths head Amanda Bardwell in April sounding the alarm over an impending boom in costs due to conflict in the Middle East.“The Middle East conflict did not affect shelf prices in quarter three, and the impact on current prices remains limited, but suppliers are navigating significant increases in fuel and fertiliser costs, and we’re hearing from a growing number of them about the need for price increases,” Bardwell said, according to the Australian Financial Review.“We’re still in the very early stages of these impacts, but we expect the pressures to grow, and fresh categories are in the first wave. “We’re already seeing some cost increases flowing through to fruit and vegetables, milk and bread. Farmers are particularly exposed to fuel and fertiliser prices. As those input costs persist, grocery products will come under further pressure.”Shocking footage shows moment Woolies worker struck with bottle1 min readShoppers shocked as fires lit in Woolworths aisles1 min read","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":false,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"-1","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"isVideo":false,"video":null,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"need_login_tip":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"}}}
