The design practices of Wesfarmers-owned retail chain Target have been called into question after claims it ripped off the work of a Queensland small business.
"The koala character is our brand and to see it in a big corporation like Target is devastating," Ms Hunter said. "There are slight differences but you can see it is very much the same."Ms Hunter designed the koala character in 2016 and still has the original hand sketches on pieces of paper. I am a small business owner from Queensland with a small child. I simply could not afford prolonged litigation.The Emondo Kids product sells for $43, while Target's version, which comes with a matching knife and fork, sells for $19."It just completely undervalues, on both price and quality, my product," Ms Hunter said. "To now see inferior products being offered on a large scale, based on the designs that I myself created, hurts me a lot.
Her lawyer sent a cease-and-desist letter to Target and the retailer denied copying her design but advised it would not order any further stock from its supplier.

Govt to decide bushfire relief packages on 'business-by-business' basis | Sky News AustraliaCouncil of Small Business Australia CEO Peter Strong says governments will have to make some tough decisions when it comes to relief packages for small businesses affected by the bushfire crisis. \n\nOn Monday, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced small businesses in disaster zones would be offered grants, concessional loans and tax relief under a suite of new measures. \n\nSmall Business Minister Michaelia Cash said the measures were aimed at those who were under-insured but the government was eager to discourage business owners from bypassing insurance all together. \n\nMr Strong said assessors would be making decisions on a 'business-by-business' basis. \n\n“So if I’ve insured my business for $50,000 and I should have insured it for $100,000, do we support someone who really needs to be a better business operator?” he said. \n\nImage: Getty tax the oil, coal, and gas industries. tax them properly! no concessions, no subsidies!! so for this tax year make it so!! there'll be heaps of money. also we have a fiat currency, the government can literally print as much money as it wants to cover the bushfires.
