founder more so than owner.. Thinking Coles, Myer, David Jones, etc here.. Those companies are all publicly listed now..

For current Owner I can think of Harvey norman, Bing Lee (although it doesn't exist in VIC, Ken Bruce, And Crazy John until he passed away..)

Also: Walmart.

Crazy John's name was Mustafa.

I didn't know that. Mustafa Ilhan was his real name, not John Ilhan. There you go.

"Crazy Mustafa's" doesn't have quite the same ring to it

More commonly heard angrily yelled out of car windows in Sydney Road.

Or the cook at Alaysa.

I'm surprised at the number of Aussies in here.

I noticed that too! A great Aussie success story brings us all out! :)

Bing Lee also passed away.
