D.I.C. (department store)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The D.I.C. (originally the Drapery Importing Company) was a New Zealand department store chain, founded in Dunedin by Bendix Hallenstein in 1884. It also had a Wellington branch on Lambton Quay.
It was bought out by one of its chief rivals, Arthur Barnett, in the 1980s. The site of the company's former headquarters and flagship store is now occupied by the Dunedin Public Art Gallery.
