Grocer
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A grocer is a dealer in staple foodstuffs, such as meats, produce or dairy products, and other household supplies. Such goods are, hence, groceries.
Sometimes used when greengrocer is meant.
Nowadays, the term is all but synonymous with supermarket, since the early supermarkets began as chains of grocery stores.
