Use the answers to identify which part of the visit needs improvement. A shopper buying one item may encounter a different problem from someone completing a weekly grocery shop. Begin with the purpose of the visit, then ask whether the store helped the shopper complete it. ## When to use this grocery store survey Store managers and customer-experience teams can use this questionnaire with adults after an in-store visit in the past seven days. It reviews shopping access and service rather than the taste of a product or a delivery experience.

Retain nonpurchase and no-help-needed options. If you add product departments, use categories shoppers recognize and collect only information needed to identify the problem. Use a separate questionnaire for delivery or click-and-collect. Keep [open-ended questions ](https://www.surveylegend.com/customer-insight/open-ended-survey-questions/)specific to the visit so shoppers can name an obstacle in their own words. ## Use a printable grocery store survey Offer the blank questionnaire at a clearly labeled store feedback point for people who prefer paper or cannot answer online. Explain where completed forms should be returned and who will review them. Handwritten replies need separate manual handling; they are not automatically added to online results. ![First page of the printable Grocery Store Survey Template with questions and answer spaces](https://www.surveylegend.com/survey-template-media/pdf-previews/grocery-store-template-pdf-preview.avif) [![](https://www.surveylegend.com/user-guide-media/icons/download-pdf.svg) Download Grocery Store Survey Template (PDF)](https://www.surveylegend.com/downloads/survey-templates/grocery-store-survey-template.pdf) Export Use a printable grocery store survey as PDF ## Create your grocery store survey with AI Copy this prompt into an AI assistant to draft the questions.

Analyze checkout experiences only among those who used checkout, and compare methods with the limits of your sample in mind. A report of difficulty identifies something to investigate; it does not by itself show that a checkout method caused lower satisfaction. For a separate tasting of a grocery product, choose a [food evaluation form ](https://www.surveylegend.com/survey-examples-templates/food-beverage-surveys/food-evaluation-form-template/). In the university thesis summary, Anselmsson (2001) writes: “customers’ attitudes and preferences when using technology-based self-service”. The thesis investigates these to understand the experience of self-service. This template applies the distinction between the service task and the technology used to complete it. The thesis is historical context, not evidence of how current checkout systems perform. Read the [self-service research ](https://www.lunduniversity.lu.se/publication/f599b505-3a63-4265-85c5-b4f6922e6d1b). ## Frequently asked questions ### Does this assess food quality? No. It concerns the shopping visit. Taste, texture and other product attributes need a separate evaluation. ### Can visitors who bought nothing answer? Yes. They may explain an unmet need. Keep the options that allow them to skip checkout ratings. ### Can I compare stores? Use the same wording, reference period and recruitment approach, then account for differences in shoppers and visit purposes. Avoid ranking small or dissimilar samples.
