closes gap with Coles Woolworths is fighting back after nearly two years of being outmanoeuv- red by Coles, with promotions and lower prices bringing in shoppers and raising hopes of two consecutive quar- ters of better-than-expected growth.

ButWiseTechhasalsobeenforcedto confront investor fears that the same automation that is allowing it to slash the number of employees could ulti- mately render its own products redundant, or at least less lucrative.
