Independent initiative. No commissions. No checkout. Shop directly.
What this is
The Other Store is a curated directory of independent Australian brands affected by David Jones entering voluntary administration in November 2026. We help people discover these independent Australian businesses and find their way to the brands’ own stores.
We don’t sell products, process payments, collect donations, take commissions or charge brands to be listed. Every purchase happens directly with the business
Independence
