... Introduction: The aim of this coursework is to use economic theory and explain how supermarkets in my area compete for custom. To provide a fair competition, the four dominant super markets, Sainsbury, Asda, Tesco and Morrisons are chosen. I shall investigate how the 'big four' compete for profit against each other in Leicestershire. Research Plan: To prevent complications the class is divided into 4 groups according to their local supermarkets and accessibility.
