Australian living Guide: large supermarket-by-number

Keywords: Student Guide for studying in Australia guide to life

My downstairs of IGA this Thursday to into Woolworths. Last week, IGA started big sale, from 7% to 6%, surprisingly good business. I cannot seize the opportunities of the more, the better things, Tun toothbrush toothpaste, toilet paper, oil and salt sauce vinegar ...   Hyperinflation feeling fantastic!   It would also like to say that Australia's large supermarket grocery stores. 1.Woolworths — Australia's largest large supermarket chains. Store up to a maximum of the kinds of goods, the food fresh, flaunted People is The Fresh Food. Very popular, Australians cordial Woolies to call it. Woolworths in the Länder have central warehouse, suppliers are basically the goods delivered to the central warehouse, and then by Woolworths own logistics sector to distribute to the supermarket. This is its own unique delivery methods, therefore, in the street you can often see large truck Woolworths, but not see other supermarket cart. Also for this reason, it may have on food freshness requirements are higher. Take the potato chips, the product shelf life of a total of three months, less than 2 months will not be sold to Woolworths, while other stores are not less than one month. Woolworths price is the cheapest and the most frequent, and sales promotions. So in the vendor's special drag, basically it to what you need to, keeping promise. For example, do not give any notice to you for a promotion, and forcing to cargo. In the vendor usually Woolworths is the highest priority, offense others cannot lose it. By the way, in Victoria, Woolworths not Woolworths, called Safeway as Woolworths in 1985 takeover of Safeway, Australia all stores in Victorian has found Safeway, simply follow the hearts of the people. So, who do not speak with Melbourne woolie Ah, they only knew Safeway, huh, huh. By the way, the famous Big W, BWS and DickSmiths is Woolworths subsidiary. There are rumors that Walmart has invested, but not sure. And cooperation in gas station built Caltex stores, shopping in woolies over $ 30, to Caltex oil per liter can save 4 cents. 2.Coles — the second-largest supermarket. Opening hours are usually longer than woolworths, many shops are open until midnight 12 points. Commodity prices than woolworths to expensive, but also cheap. It put the woolies lock as competitors, what General as long as the woolies promotions, it will immediately follow, also occasionally racing ahead of sales, or promotional price down a bit. Coles is also planning to go the route of the central warehouse, but probably also want to prepare for a few years. Coles Bilo and below there are clearance Go-lo inventory discount supermarket, prices are more expensive. This year, amongst all Bilo Coles are changed, originally thought to increase sales, but not as good as previous results of the business. Because a group has been formed Bilo brand loyal customers, who do not want to go to the new Coles. Oh, and this unexpected results let Coles was trouble. Coles Group, group membership Coles-Myer there under, Kmart's illustrious. And Shell cooperation built Coles Express convenience store, buy more than $ 30 Coles, there is also a refueling 4 per cent of the province. 3.Big W – sales from potato chips, in the case of a third country, other commodities do not know well. Is the Woolies following discount stores, but more than a commodity, remember also woolies selling clothes. Store less points, generally in the shopping centre, not far from the woolies, not like the woolies and coles myself in a restaurant along the tree. 4.Kmart — commodity-based, you have a cheap, generally in coles, because as a group. Personal thought, Kmart and best of all Kmart Auto Service.    With Kmart's somewhere it, car service, you can change a tire, do maintenance, to do an annual inspection, and the car price car than a lot cheaper.    5.Franklin — there are only in New Hampshire, storefront, but the price is extremely cheap, people. 6.Target — most famous selling clothes, household products and so on.    Should be the Target of the United States came of it. 7.Ritches — following the most famous is the IGA, in South Australia and Victoria's very popular, the Queensland State and many shops. And woolies, coles, sales almost nothing, roughly 500 to 1.     However, if you remove the woolies, coles, kmart and big w, it left a small chain, are also considered one of the best. 8. other shops, such as & Carry Cash, Campbell, SupaValue ...   Shop, but some are national chain. As long as the national chain of supermarkets, commercial promotions must national unity of time and price. Very few of which State a separate action. This is from the Smiths of sales forecasting model. Also, Western Australia WA unless the merchandise is produced, as elsewhere, because the transport of fresh for a long time. Very few suppliers of air transport. Railway General to 4, 5 days, the road to 8 to 10 days. Hey, people suffering from WA!

Well, today, 8 here, called it!
