New data from Roy Morgan shows that established mass retailers Bunnings, Kmart and Big W remain dominant and stable in 2025, with modest growth in shopper numbers year-on-year (2% for Bunnings, 3% for Kmart and 1% for Big W). Meanwhile, online marketplaces Temu, Shein and Amazon have registered strong shopper gains; Temu had 5 million Australian shoppers in 2025 (17% growth year-on-year), Shein had 2.9 million Australian shoppers (up 28%) and Amazon gained 500,000 shoppers (up 6%). In contrast, legacy online retailers like eBay and Kogan, as well as major department stores Myer and David Jones, are losing shoppers as they struggle to compete with value-focused retailers and online marketplaces, reflecting shifting consumer preferences toward lower prices and more convenient shopping experiences. Roy Morgan estimates that Amazon, Temu, and Shein collectively generated close to $12 billion in retail sales in 2025, reflecting an increase of over $2 billion compared to 2024.
