One of the distinct features of supermarkets is self service. Earlier, customers at grocery stores used to be served by assistants but this was an expensive exercise. Supermarkets sell a large variety of products and stock various brands of practically each and every product. They also stock various quantities and varieties of products. The demand for supermarkets has grown substantially over the years and today there are several famous supermarket chains. These chains may serve a specific region or a country. Additionally, there are some chains, which are international and serve countries across the globe. Woolworth and Coles are famous supermarket chains.

Grocery refers to a wide variety of edible products and includes fresh food, frozen food, fruit and snacks. Cereals and beverages are also included in this category. Most of the supermarkets are similar in layout. Layout is so designed as to enhance impulse buying. Staples and low margin goods are placed down the aisle, so the customer has to cross all the goods before reaching there. This generally leads to impulse purchases and therefore higher revenue. Search with Yellow Pages® to find a range of supermarkets and grocery stores in all states in Australia.
