A former Coles executive has been chosen to head up a new company aimed at improving the quality of stores in the Australia's remote Indigenous communities.
Under the Federal Government's Outback Stores initiative, communities will have the option of handing their shops over to the new company.
John Kop will oversee the project, which it is hoped will improve the supply of fresh and nutritious food in remote areas.
He is discussing the plans with community representatives in Alice Springs today (17/10/2006.
Outback Stores chairman, Joseph Elu, says former supermarket executives sitting on the company's board are confident in Mr Kop's ability.
"They know John, they've seen his progress and they're very confident that he's got the right credentials and the right person for this job," Mr Elu said.
