Grocery Stores in Victoria, BC
Faircart lists 11 grocery stores in Victoria, BC, across 3 banners: Thrifty Foods, FreshCo and No Frills. 10 of them come from the retailer's own store locator; 1 come from OpenStreetMap, where volunteers map stores whose chains do not publish a readable list. Nothing here is typed in by hand. Thrifty Foods has the most Victoria locations we can confirm (9 of 11). These stores sit in 8 different postal areas (V8N, V8S, V8T, V8V, V8W, V8X, and more). Victoria's grocery banners here are run by Empire Company Limited and Loblaw Companies Limited, and 1 of the 11 stores we list is covered by Faircart's live price tracking.
1 of these 11 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 Loblaw, Walmart, Costco, Super C and Adonis do not publish a store list we can read, so those addresses are contributed by volunteers. They are accurate in aggregate, but any single listing may be out of date.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 11 Victoria listings (91%) came from a chain's own store locator. The other 1 came from OpenStreetMap contributors, because Loblaw, Walmart, Costco, Super C and Adonis do not publish a store list we can read. Community listings are accurate in aggregate but any single one may be out of date.
- Concentration: 10 of the 11 Victoria stores we list (91%) 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 Victoria shoppers should assume there are more stores here than we show.

Grocery prices in Victoria
Faircart does not have Victoria-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 Victoria locations, we do track live prices for FreshCo. 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 Victoria banners
Thrifty Foods
Not verifiedWe have not been able to verify a current, chain-wide price-match policy for Thrifty Foods against the retailer's own published materials, so we are not publishing a verdict.
FreshCo
Competitor price matchIf 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.

No Frills
Competitor price matchShow 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."

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 Victoria 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.
