Slaying 'em in the aisles

Article Abstract:

The Australian competition and Consumer Commission began during the week of Feb 15, 1999, legal proceedings against the Safeway supermarket chain, owned by Woolworth Ltd, for exerting its market power to influence prices for bread. The case highlights a battle that pits independent grocers against supermarket chains. The investigation will damage the public image of stores like Coles, Woolworths and Safeway, and may lead to laws that reduce the commercial power of large chains.
