Big W Logo
The first Big W store opened in 1964 at the Jesmond shopping centre in Newcastle. The original stores were full line department stores similar to a Myer and David Jones. At that time Woolworths still operated several hundred Woolworths Variety stores, which were the original Woolworths stores and carried a small range of general merchandise products.
In 1970 the Big W name ceased to be used and the stores were converted to what were then known as Woolworths Family Centres that had “a very large range of general merchandise as well as a supermarket food range”. These stores were ultimately converted to supermarkets in the 1980s.
The Big W name was resurrected with a new store in Tamworth in 1976, which was the first Big W discount department store to open, with the successful discount department store format that continues today.
