While value-focused consumers have turned to discounters, hypermarkets and warehouse clubs to find the lowest grocery prices, high-income consumers are increasingly favouring upscale grocers.

Time-pressed shoppers are also making quick, fill-in shopping trips at convenience retailers, which have responded by growing their selection of groceries. These two trends - polarisation and convenience - are reshaping grocery retailing in the US.
