What is the average "medium format" grocery shop in term of square footage it needs vs a regular supermarket?

Farm Boy typically has medium-size stores, although a lot of their newer locations are getting larger. Shoppers Drug Mart is medium-size as well but it's not a true grocery store. Usually need around 10,000 square feet to operate a full service grocery store.

Marche and Rabba offer mini-formats, but at a bit of a higher price point than the majors. Spaccio is hyper-specialty and outside most shopper's routine budgets. (good stuff though)

Loblaws City Market tends to run 12,400ft2 at the low end, to just over 18,000ft2 at the high end.

Farm Boy's size range is generally 12,000-38,000ft2

Sobey's Urban Fresh can get as small as ~8,000ft2

Rabba tends to range from 3,500ft2 to 5,000ft2
