Woolworths
Woolworths is Australia`s largest supermarket chain, with the largest number of stores, the largest variety of goods, and the highest demand for freshness, like its slogan "the fresh food people". It is said that in suppliers, Woolworths is the highest level of treatment, basically it has to give whatever it wants, lose others can not lose it. Even without sending any notice, a promotion, is forcing an order, which is simply the overriding president of the supermarket world, but that proves why Woolworths is cheap and often promoted.

Coles
Coles is Woolworths`s most powerful competitor, and both stores have been struggling to earn the "brother" position of the Australian supermarket. Many stores are open until 11:00 and decorated more finely than Woolworths,Coles, which has longer hours of business. Although the overall price of Coles is slightly higher than that of Woolworths, as a competitor, Coles has been battling the price of Woolworths, even opening a parking lot between the two Coles, face-to-face with Clayton, which prevents Woolworths from seizing the market. In fact, as consumers, we will not care which supermarket will win, we only care about the price will be cheaper ~

Aldi
Aldi, though not as trench as Woolworths and Coles, can always be living in a competitive market at a low price, and it`s cost-saving. Aldi uses a low-cost management approach, and the staff are all in the same position, and the container is used directly as a shelf. In addition, Aldi`s raw food and fruit and vegetables are cheaper than Woolworths and Coles, like mushrooms or sausages. The price is often about half the price of Coles. However, Aldi doesn`t provide a plastic bag. Let`s go to the small partners for shopping.

IGA
Although IGA is a national chain, but it is contracted by local contractors, each store is operated independently. Therefore, different stores will also have different prices, the store will be smaller, the price will be more expensive than Woolworths and Coles, and there will be few discounts. But the goods are complete, the business model is more like the convenience store of 7 / 11, the containers are all the best-selling brands in Australia. The IGA is very wide-ranging, most remote places do not have Woolworths and Coles, but there must be a IGA..
