Woolworths CEO… Brad Banducci says inflation has touched every part of
Australia's economy “for good or bad”. “Whether it’s the transportation costs,
the warehouse costs, often the packaging costs – so there’s a lot of material
issues that have been flowing through into the long life categories as well,” he
said during a media conference in Sydney.




"We will continue to work with relevant authorities as we investigate the
incident and we will keep our customers fully informed of any further updates
impacting them."

Woolworths Group Chief Security officer, Pieter van der Merwe said its "cyber
security and privacy teams are fully engaged and working closely with MyDeal to
support the response."

Customers who have not had their data accessed will not be contacted by MyDeal,
the company said. 

No other Woolworths Group platforms have been compromised and no customer or
Everyday Rewards records have been accessed.
