Consumers approach grocery shopping differently in 2025 — PYMNTS.com

Analysts are expecting significant changes in how consumers shop for groceries in 2025:

“Discount grocery retailers, however, will face challenges in retaining customers as consumer priorities shift. Discount chains like Aldi and Dollar General, which thrived during high inflation, will struggle in 2025 as consumers look for greater convenience, value, and variety. This trend will benefit larger players, such as Walmart and Amazon, which dominate the grocery eCommerce space. In addition, continued consolidation is expected within the grocery sector, with smaller retailers seeking partnerships to stay competitive against industry giants.“
