FoodWorks is an Australiansupermarket chain run by independent retail group Australian United Retailers Limited (AURL). The AURL was created in November 2004 from the merger of the FoodWorks Supermarket Group Ltd (FSG) and Australian United Retailers (AUR).[3] Its main competitors are Woolworths, Coles, IGA and Aldi. It is Australia's second largest leading independent supermarket retailing group, supporting in excess of A$1.35 billion in annual sales at the retail level.
Retail groups that were part of the merger include AUR, Foodstore, FoodWorks, Buy Rite, Cut Price, 727, Rite-Way, Banana Joe's, Food-Rite, Tuckerbag and Food-Way.
The AURL currently has over 600 supermarkets, grocery stores and convenience stores. The stores span seven states and territories with over 400 of them operating under the FoodWorks brand.[4]
FoodWorks has some similarities to IGA, the brand's closest competitor. They have similar ancestry, both being created from independent retail stores merging to create supermarket groups. Also, both comprise multiple individual retailers originally trading under some of the same independent chains.
In addition, IGA's main home brand is Black and Gold, a generic food brand which also sells in FoodWorks stores across the country.[5] Black and Gold products are easily distinguished by their yellow packaging with black writing.
