An investment company owned by mining magnate Andrew 'Twiggy' Forrest and his wife Nicola has bought iconic bootmaker RM Williams, returning it to Australian ownership.
The Adelaide-based outfitter, founded by bushman Reginald Murray Williams in 1932, had been in the hands of Louis Vuitton-backed private equity firm L Catterton.
It employs 400 people at its Salisbury workshop in Adelaide and another 500 across Australia.
