The research phase consisted of two parts:

1) In-market pricing study

Our pricing study, conducted in Plano, TX, analyzed eight major retailers, including Aldi, Costco, HEB, Kroger, Market Street, Target, Tom Thumb, and Walmart.

We meticulously compared a basket of 40 popular products, both in-store and online, over a month-long period in 2023. We scrutinized daily prices, promotional offers, and even the hidden costs of pickup orders.

2) Online consumer survey

We also conducted an extensive online survey with 1,946 adults, all active participants in their household's grocery shopping.

This research, carried out in June 2023, delved into the shopping habits and preferences of today's consumers.
