American term, is not used. The Oxford English Dictionary states that a "grocery" is (especially in British English) a shop that sells food and other things used in the home.

The UK government does not define "grocery (shop)" or "supermarket" nor make a distinction between them, but defines the types of store formats (whether they sell groceries, or otherwise):

* "One-stop shops" as over 1,400 square metres (15,000 square feet)
* "Mid-range stores": between 280 and 1,400 square metres
