Grocery Prices in Germany

How to Read This Table

• Aldi & Lidl (discounters) are consistently cheapest for most items. Aldi Süd and Aldi Nord may differ slightly by region.
• Kaufland sits between discounters and full-service supermarkets — good value for large packs.
• REWE is the most popular full-service supermarket. Higher prices but wider range, better produce quality and longer opening hours.
• EDEKA is Germany's premium option. Most expensive but best quality, especially for meat and fresh produce.

Smart Shopping Tips

• Check the Weekly Deals page every Monday — discounters rotate special offers that can undercut even these prices.
• Loyalty apps (REWE app, Kaufland Card) add extra discounts on top of shelf prices.
• Most supermarkets have a house brand (Eigenmarke) that is 20–40% cheaper than branded equivalents.
• Prices in city-centre stores (Stadtmitte) are typically 5–10% higher than suburban or retail-park locations.
