On average, every man, woman and child in this country spends $100 a week across their many outlets.What does such dominance mean for suppliers? And is it good for consumers?In Supermarket Monsters, journalist and author Malcolm Knox shines a light on Australia’s twin mega-retailers, exploring how they have built and exploited their market power. Knox reveals the unavoidable and often intimidating tactics both companies use to get their way. In return for cheap milk and bread, he argues, we as consumers are risking much more: quality, diversity and community.‘Supermarket Monsters is a valuable primer on the hidden costs of our supermarket duopoly’ —the AgeMalcolm Knox is a former literary editor of the Sydney Morning Herald and has won a Walkley Award for journalism.

A thoroughly researched volume that sheds light on the behaviour conducted by Australia's two biggest retailers. I found myself romping through it page after page. It certainly gives pause to where to spend our grocery dollars.

Interesting read.
