Endeavour Group Ltd (EG) is an Australian alcoholic drinks retailer, hotel operator, and poker machine operator that was spun off from Woolworths Group in 2021.

History

In 2019, Woolworths restructured its alcoholic drinks business to form Endeavour Group.[1] In June 2021, the Endeavour Group was listed as a separate entity on the Australian Securities Exchange.[2][3]

In April 2023, Endeavour invested $3 million in esports company Fortress.[4]

In August 2023, the Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission fined Australian Leisure and Hospitality Group $550,000 after finding the company had ran 220 gaming machines across 62 venues in the state without installing the mandatory harm reduction technology YourPlay.[5]
