Also the Aust. Fast Foods website seems to back up that version.

Regardless of which is correct (if either), I do remember both of them them co-existing in Sydney for many years.

I remember both being side by side but I thought that was just a transition period. Mind you I talking Wollongong and the one on Newbridge Road near Milperra.
Cooperate takeovers rarely portray information publicly, so we have no real idea whats going on. I'm still on the hunt to find out who manufactured Cue Cola.
All that said, here is another http://www.redrooster.com.au/redrooster-story

I remember Big Rooster.
I don't know the merge/takeover details, but I remember them being separate from Red Rooster. Big Rooster had blue as the primary colour? From memory, I was a kid at the time lol
