Grocery Stores in Vancouver, BC

Faircart lists 17 grocery stores in Vancouver, BC, across 7 banners: Safeway, No Frills, Costco, Loblaws, Real Canadian Superstore, Walmart and Your Independent Grocer. 10 of them come from the retailer's own store locator; 7 come from OpenStreetMap, where volunteers map stores whose chains do not publish a readable list. Nothing here is typed in by hand. Safeway has the most Vancouver locations we can confirm (10 of 17). These stores sit in 10 different postal areas (V5N, V5R, V5Z, V6B, V6E, V6G, and more). Vancouver's grocery banners here are run by Empire Company Limited, Loblaw Companies Limited, Costco Wholesale Canada Ltd. and Walmart Canada Corp., and 1 of the 17 stores we list is covered by Faircart's live price tracking.

7 of these 17 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 Loblaw, Walmart, Costco, Super C and Adonis do not publish a store list we can read, so those addresses are contributed by volunteers. They are accurate in aggregate, but any single listing may be out of date.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.

  • Source split: 10 of these 17 Vancouver listings (59%) came from a chain's own store locator.

Community listings are accurate in aggregate but any single one may be out of date.
  • Concentration: 10 of the 17 Vancouver stores we list (59%) are operated by a single company, Empire Company Limited.
  • Not listed on this page: Farm Boy, Longo’s and Chalo! FreshCo. We could not read their store lists from a public source on our last harvest, so Vancouver shoppers should assume there are more stores here than we show.

Grocery prices in Vancouver

Faircart does not have Vancouver-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 Vancouver locations, we do track live prices for Walmart. 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 Vancouver banners

Safeway

Not verified

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

No Frills

Competitor price match

Show No Frills a major supermarket competitor's current flyer (print or digital) for an eligible item and the store will match that lower price, subject to its current terms. Despite the "Won't Be Beat®" branding, the program matches the competitor's price — it doesn't undercut it — and No Frills decides which competitors, trade areas and "comparable items" count "solely at our discretion."

Costco

Loblaws

Real Canadian Superstore

Competitor price match

For an in-store ad match, show an official current print or digital ad from an eligible major competitor in the store's local trade area. The product must be identical in brand, size and attributes, and the limit is four units. Ontario online customers can request an eligible ad match after delivery through the Help Centre; that online process is not offered nationally.

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.

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 Vancouver 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.
