32. Related-party transactions
 

IFRS 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision-maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and to assess their performance. The chief operating decision-maker has been identified as the executive directors of the Group.

On this basis, the Group has six operating segments:

Segment Nature of business
Retail – Retailers of tiles, brassware, laminated flooring, bathroomware and accessories.
Franchising – Bearer of South African and non-South African trademarks.
Properties – Property investments.
Supply and Support Services – Distributor of tiles, shower enclosures, brassware, laminated flooring, accessories, and tiling tools.
  – Group administration and management services.
  – Outsourced debtor solutions.
  – Procurement.
Franchise stores – Franchisee retailers of tiles, brassware, laminated flooring, bathroomware and accessories.
Manufacturing – Manufacturers of tiles, sanitaryware, baths, adhesive and related products.

All intersegmental transactions are concluded at arm’s length.

The following measures, as included in the quarterly management report reviewed by the chief operating decision-makers, are used to assess performance:
