Grocery Stores in Guelph, ON

Faircart lists 10 grocery stores in Guelph, ON, across 6 banners: Food Basics, Walmart, Zehrs, Costco, FreshCo and Metro. 5 of them come from the retailer's own store locator; 5 come from OpenStreetMap, where volunteers map stores whose chains do not publish a readable list. Nothing here is typed in by hand. Food Basics has the most Guelph locations we can confirm (3 of 10). These stores sit in 5 different postal areas (N1E, N1G, N1H, N1K, N1L). Guelph's grocery banners here are run by Metro Inc., Walmart Canada Corp., Loblaw Companies Limited, Costco Wholesale Canada Ltd. and Empire Company Limited, and 7 of the 10 stores we list are covered by Faircart's live price tracking.

5 of these 10 locations come from OpenStreetMap — verify before you drive. Loblaw, Walmart, Costco, Super C and Adonis do not publish a store list we can read, so those addresses are contributed by volunteers. They are accurate in aggregate, but any single listing may be out of date. Rows from a chain's own locator are marked below.

Grocery prices in Guelph

Faircart does not have Guelph-specific prices, and we are not going to imply that we do. Our price observations are collected from each banner's online storefront for one region, so they describe the banner, not the individual store on your street.

Of the banners with confirmed Guelph locations, we do track live prices for Food Basics, Walmart, FreshCo, Metro. You can run your own shopping list against those banners and see which basket comes out lowest — only baskets that contain every item you asked for are ranked.

Price matching at Guelph banners

Food Basics

No price-match policy

As of September 4, 2026, Food Basics publishes no price-match policy. We checked the Food Basics Help Centre, the weekly flyer, the terms and conditions, and the Moi loyalty programme terms on foodbasics.ca, and none of them describes a customer-initiated price match against a competitor's advertised price. This is a finding about Food Basics' published material, not a claim about what an individual store manager will do at the till.

Full Food Basics price-match rules →Verified September 4, 2026

Walmart

Own-channel match only

Walmart Canada's pricing policy does not offer competitor Ad Match. If an identical item is currently sold and in stock for less on Walmart.ca, an associate can verify that Walmart price in store and may require supervisor approval; the manager on duty has the final decision. That is an own-channel price correction, not a match against another retailer.

Full Walmart price-match rules →Verified August 25, 2026

Zehrs

Not verified

We have not been able to verify a current, chain-wide price-match policy for Zehrs against the retailer's own published materials, so we are not publishing a verdict.

Costco

Not verified

We have not been able to verify a current, chain-wide price-match policy for Costco against the retailer's own published materials, so we are not publishing a verdict.

FreshCo

Competitor price match

If one of a short list of discount competitors advertises an identical item cheaper in its current flyer, FreshCo sells it to you for 1¢ less. The guarantee is limited to up to four named discount competitors in your store's trade area, current-flyer proof only, and a cap of four units.

What this page is missing

A directory that hides its gaps is an advertisement. These banners operate in Canada and are not listed above, because on our last harvest we could not read their store lists from a public source. Assume Guelph has more grocery stores than this page shows.

  • Farm BoyEmpire Company LimitedFarm Boy runs a separate storefront platform and is absent from the Empire store index we read, so we cannot list its locations.
  • Longo’sEmpire Company LimitedLongo’s runs a separate storefront platform and is absent from the Empire store index we read, so we cannot list its locations.
  • Chalo! FreshCoEmpire Company LimitedChalo! FreshCo is not distinguished as its own banner in the Empire store index we read, so we cannot list its locations separately.
