2354 GMT - Consumers' perception that Coles offers lower prices than Australian grocery rival Woolworths is likely to drive further market-share gains, Citi analysts write in a note. A Citi survey of 1,800 shoppers is seen by the analysts as evidence that Woolworths has more work ahead to convince Australian consumers that they are competitive on pricing. The analysts reckon that the relative success of Coles on this front is helped by the improved online offering facilitated by its new fulfillment centers. While many shoppers signal an intention to shop more at Aldi, Coles is winning relative to Woolworths, the analysts add. (stuart.condie@wsj.com)
