(Data from IBISWorld)

Woolworths and Coles are the two largest supermarkets in Australia, having a combined market share of more than 65% of the grocery market[1]. Aldi (Aldi Süd) is a recent arrival (after coming to Oz in 2001), and has managed to acquire a large market share from the Woolworths/Coles duopoly which prior to Aldi arriving was 80% market share.

Costco has a 3.5% market share, despite only having 15 stores in Australia (Woolworths has more than 1,100). It arrived in Melbourne, Australia in 2009[2].

Fun fact, Aldi owns Winn-Dixie in the US, who's stores look like a carbon copy of Coles stores... down to having similar "down, down" branding.
