How Grocers Are Navigating Current Market Challenges
Although grocery-anchored retail is one of the surest bets in commercial real estate investment, Placer.ai says the brick-and-mortar grocery sector itself is facing an uncertain market in 2025. These range from rising prices to declining consumer confidence and increasing competition from discounters, superstores and online shopping channels.
“Yet even in the face of these challenges, the sector has demonstrated remarkable resilience – growing its foot traffic and holding onto visit share,” according to a new Placer.ai white paper, Grocery in 2025: Visitation Trends and Consumer Behavior.
The white paper explores which strategies have helped the segment navigate today’s tough market and how industry stakeholders can make the most of the opportunities in the current market. The report draws on the latest location intelligence to uncover the trends shaping grocery retail in early 2025, highlighting insights to help key players make informed, data-driven decisions on store formats, product offerings and more.
