Ask New Zealand how a grocery duopoly is going, it's bad for both consumers and producers.

Note that Switzerland is really a weird country, it’s difficult to compare it with other places.
And I always wondered if the goal is to provide service to customers/"owners" why are they expanding outside their geographical areas like to other countries.
Coop and Migros have the biggest margins in Europe. Hardly the picture of competition.
Seems more like tacit collusion.
Which is to say, a duopoly is never good.
