Have you ever wondered how affordable your neighborhood supermarket was in compared to other food stores? Then stop your search. The 26 most popular grocery stores in the US were compared in terms of pricing. I then developed a price index to compare these costs on an equal footing. Here is a graph showing the price index for each store.
Is Central Market affordable? Our research indicates that Central Market has a pricing index of 3.90, which indicates that it is less expensive than 0 out of the 26 grocery stores surveyed. In other words, it is the most costly grocery shop out of the 26 that we looked at for the most basic items. This basically means that Central Market is cheaper than 0 of the most well-known grocery store companies in the US.
The costs of various store brand products are gathered from the most popular shopping categories (beverage, bread, canned goods, dairy, dry goods, frozen, personal care, and cleaner), and the total price is totally averaged out to determine this index score. This index’s calculation required the collection of over 100 individual prices.
