Aldi are rather big, as are the others.

Rubbish. They are tiny in the UK. What they do in other countries is
a separate issue.

Share of UK Grocery Market: 12 weeks to April 24

Tesco 29.8%
Asda 16.5%
Sainsbury's 15.9%
Morrisons/Safeway 12.2%
Somerfield/Kwik Save 5.9%
Co-ops 4.7%
Waitrose 3.7%
Aldi 2.2%
Iceland 1.9%
Lidl 1.8%
Netto 0.7%

Netto, Lidl and Aldi have near 5% of the UK market, which is a considerable
amount of business - and getting bigger by the week. They are also very big
elsewhere.

Geez.... You'd argue the hind legs off of a donkey. Even together,
they are less than half the size of Morrisons. In fact, Aldi have
been losing market share to Tesco.
