History

The first Sussan store opened on Little Collins Street, Melbourne selling lingerie in 1939. By the end of 1951 there were three stores in Little Collins Street, Collins Street and Swanston Street. In 1953, the first two stores opened in Adelaide followed by a Perth store in 1956. During the 1960s, the Sussan range grew beyond traditional lingerie and blouses.

By 1968, their expansion continued with the purchase of Chic Salon from Woolworths, a 94-store lingerie chain operating in Queensland and New South Wales. This acquisition, along with the 60 existing stores in the southern states and Western Australia, made Sussan a national operation. In 2003, Naomi Milgrom, the granddaughter of founders Fay and Sam Gandel took control of the group after buying out her parents and siblings.[2]

gollark: Huh. Someone actually put up a trade request with a CB copper asking for the release.
gollark: I wonder what they'll look like as adults...
gollark: I think the first wave will have hit the tradehub by now. The release was five hours ago, I think.
gollark: More like in five hours or never, but whatever.
gollark: Can I probably get a CB Copper? I've always dreamed of having unreasonable amounts of those.
