Three criteria for the best name of a grocery store

First, let’s figure out what features distinguish effective grocery store naming.

Tell customers what to expect

Help customers understand what products or benefits you offer from your name. The title may be related to:

  • product group: meat, organic, vegan, budget, farm, gluten-free, imported products, etc.
  • location: city, district, or street (relevant if you work offline or want to emphasize the origin of products from a particular region);
  • value proposition: low prices, gourmet products, picnic sets, etc.

Choose the category that represents the brand best and write a list of a few dozen words and phrases that are associated with the main characteristics. This list will be useful for generating titles.

Distinguishes from competitors

Are you opening a grocery store? There is surely a similar store in your city or area. Are you planning to sell desserts? See how many competitors already offer such products.

Competitive analysis is necessary in order not to repeat existing names and stand out in the market. Analyze the names of other stores, their work, and methods you can borrow.

Easy to remember

You already have the results of the brainstorming session you started with. Time to come up with a name based on the associations written out:

  • Combine keywords in any order. To speed up this process, use ZenBusiness online name generator, which will suggest dozens of creative titles based on given words. Also, using the service, you can create the main visual symbol of the brand – the logo.

  • Avoid long and complex names: your goal is to make the name easy to remember and pronounce.
  • Bring the title to life using puns, rhymes, puns, and other such tricks.
  • Take care of versatility. Don’t name a store based on a narrow line of products (like “Craft Cheeses”): if you expand the range, you may need to change the name.

How to use a name in branding  

Draw customers’ attention to your brand both offline and online. The best advertising for an offline store will be a sign. Additional promotion tools are packaging, interior design, and  discount coupons with your name. On the Internet, place the name on the site, social networks, and banner advertising.

Conclusion

To come up with a creative grocery store name, start from the product you offer and your customers’ expectations. Don’t be afraid to be creative and use the name at the maximum number of points of contact with the target audience so that you will be remembered and recommended to friends.
