in my experience, the grocery stores in sweden tend to be considerably smaller than the grocery stores in the united states. pretty much every grocery store in the US is larger than an ica maxi. there needs to be room for all 20 flavors of toothpaste and all 40 flavors of oreos.
That person is probably thinking of European size stores. I think grocery stores in the US might just be bigger on average than they are in Sweden? We have some big mega stores here compared to Europe.
yeah ours are oftentime closer to convenience stores, and distributed fairly evenly so people largely just go to the closest one. Stuff like walmart is terrifyingly big, that’s what i’d consider an entire mall.
6 grocery stores for 100’000 people? here in sweden that’s not enough grocery stores for 50k!
with 100k people i’d expect at least 20 stores, if not more.

Unless you’re counting shit like Dollar General, not even close to that many in the U.S.
I don’t even know how they would survive with that low number of customers. Why would you even need 20?
