Iconic Australian retailer Barbeques Galore has been saved from collapse after being sold to Victorian wholesaler Acom International. Acom International on Monday announced it had acquired the Barbeques Galore intellectual property, brand portfolio and wholesale inventory from Receivers. "Our ambition is simple: to bring Barbeques Galore and some of Australia's most loved barbecue and wood-heating brands within reach of more Australians," he said. Under the proposal Barbeques Galore will shut down its physical retail stores it owns, while independent operators will continue stay open under licensing arrangements.
