Data from Deutsche Bank shows that there was a 1.3 per cent increase in the prices of brand-name groceries in the June 2015 quarter. However, the prices of private-label products fell by 6.1 per cent, as Coles and Woolworths sought to defend their market share against Aldi. Deutsche’s supermarket inflation survey also shows that the price of a basket of brand-name groceries at Coles increased by 5.1 per cent during the quarter, compared with a 2.6 decline at Woolworths.
