Largest?[edit]

The head paragraph says "Australia's largest independent supermarket chain", and that is supported by their own page at [1]. But IGA (Independent Grocers Association) wikipedia page says 1,600 stores (although their webpage says 1,400[2], way more than Drake's 60 stores.

Some non-definitive references include:

IGA ([3])
Drakes (self-published [4])
IGA [5] (this has the independent chains at 16% of the market, of which IGA has 7% of market and all other independents at 9%. The proportion of those that are Drakes is not mentioned.))

(I think "Richies IGA" is the same as IGA?)

What is the definition of largest? I couldn't find any definitive references. peterl (talk) 23:24, 26 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
