Monthly sales of supermarkets and other grocery (except convenience) stores in Canada hit a high of 9.64 billion Canadian dollars in March 2020, an increase of over two billion compared to the previous month. The spread of coronavirus in early March 2020 and consequent panic buying can explain this jump in sales. By December 2023, grocery store sales amounted to approximately nine billion Canadian dollars.
