what happened to DEKA,it just disappeared

[asasinz2]

Farmers bought them out in 1993 and since it was loosing them a lot of money they decided to close down most of the stores in 2001 some stores became Farmers.

They did not fully "kill" Deka. Theres still the sign in Huntly/Hamilton. Thumbs up if you saw that sign!!

[Bewitchd1]

The voice-over for this ad was done by Theresa Healey (ex Shortland Street c1994, Go Girls).

Now, that's actually a sad story, because up until 1999 DEKA was doing very well. And then, Farmers brought them out. BASTARDS!!!
