Grocery Experience Survey: A Canadian Perspective on Service, Product and Management Specifies

Abstract: The socio-economic significance of independent grocers has been, for the most part, underappreciated and overlooked for several decades in the Western world. Few studies have been looked at the field in recent years and even less so in Canada. Retail studies have highlighted the sector’s evolution, particularly the emergence of multiple channel designs. The primary focus of previous studies has been on food retailing, but not ownership and localized market adaptation. This study intended to identify … Show more

“…On a 20 (1) Sugar calculation: 27.4 g/ss less sugar per basket (coefficient estimate in Table 5, column (5)) × average of 2.6 servings per food item from our data = 71.46 g less sugar per basket. Multiplying this number by 5.4 grocery shopping trips per month of Canadians (Charlebois et al, 2019) and dividing by 2.4, which is the average Canadian household size (Statistics Canada, 2017), and further dividing by 30 days in a month, we get 5.3 fewer grams of sugar per person per day. (2) Sodium calculation uses the coefficient estimate of 752.4 mg from column (6) of Table 5 and follows the same procedure as the sugar calculation.…”

“…Within the grocery industry, some retailers succeed where others fail because of competition, supply and demand, and lags in technological advancements (Tangires, 2008). One of the main pillars of success for a retail grocer is the socio-economic significance of customers as stakeholders (Charlebois & Music, 2019). Due to the limited knowledge about independent grocers within the Canadian food system, the basis for this exploratory study was to uncover features within the customer and retailer relationship that might impact the long-term resilience for independent grocers.…”

“…Canadian Food Distribution and Policy scholar, Sylvain Charlebois (2019), gives the academic definition of an independent grocer as wanting to appear like a major chain grocer but differentiating themselves by offering a unique experience, specialty, or new products, by having a novel store design, and by a highly personalized service. When an independently operated store (often family-owned) becomes successful, major grocers like to buy them out because they understand the value of what is brought to customers (Charlebois, 2021).…”
