Winston Score History

The full picture

Briscoe Group is a New Zealand retailer that sells homeware and sporting goods through two main store brands: Briscoes Homeware and Rebel Sport. Briscoes stores sell things like cookware, bedding, and appliances, while Rebel Sport sells clothing, footwear, and equipment for exercise and outdoor activities. The company is one of New Zealand's largest specialty retailers in these two categories.

Briscoe Group makes money by selling products directly to everyday shoppers in physical stores and through its online channels. It operates entirely within New Zealand, with around 80 stores across the country, giving it strong brand recognition and a loyal customer base built over decades. The company runs frequent promotional sales events, which drive high foot traffic but also put pressure on margins over time — managing that balance between volume and profitability is one of its key ongoing challenges.
