Roy Morgan Single Source (Australia): July 2004 - November 2009. Sample: Main grocery buyer. In the 6 Months to November ‘09 n=7,215. *Supermarket Customers refers to those Main Grocery Buyers who nominated that supermarket as the one where they do their main grocery shopping. From July ’09 IGA includes only IGA supermarket customers, whereas it previously included IGA, Festival and IGA Express.

Norman Morris, Industry Communications Director, Roy Morgan Research, says:

“Aldi remains staunch in its top position for satisfaction of the main supermarkets, adding further to recent strong gains and pulling Aldi from a low mid year result. Satisfaction with Aldi departments are also reaping similar rewards with most now being clearly ahead of their competitors, particularly general merchandise which is showing a marked improvement, and quite possibly contributing to their recovery.”
