As a result of low inflation in the price of groceries, growth in supermarket sales is believed to be at it lowest in the last 10 years.  

Grocery sales grew by 0.8{06aeb1921e0b802d2bd9c766bc98fb11cc6a46c2b0593ed9c88a0e29cf417a34} in the quarter ending August.

However, the discounters Aldi and Lidl continue to thrive in the current market, in contrast to Tesco whose sales fell 4{06aeb1921e0b802d2bd9c766bc98fb11cc6a46c2b0593ed9c88a0e29cf417a34} from a year earlier.
