How much money does a grocery store manager earn?

Answer 1

I have worked in the Grocery industry for about 12 years.

There are different types of managers in the Grocery business all with different pay. There are Department managers (Dairy, Produce, Bakery, Meat, etc.) that oversee a single department, then there are store managers (normally 3-4 per store) that oversee overall store operations.

Where I worked, Department Managers start at around $17.00 per hour.

The Store Managers would start around $19.00 per hour and go up from there. The Store Director position, which is the high man on the totem pole, starts at a salary of about $60,000 per year and goes up to about $85,000 per year, depending on your experience and how long you have been with the company.

Beyond that, we have what are called Market Managers. They oversee a group of different stores, normally 8 of them. They drop in each store for a few hours each week and go over things with the Store Managers. They make around $100,000 and up per year.

I have worked in the Grocery Business for about 12 years.

Our entry level part time employees start at a little more than minimum wage.

Full time employees start at around $9.00 - $10.00 per hour and can go up to about $15.00 per hour depending on their experience and how long they have been with the company.

Department managers start at around $17.00 per hour.

Store managers start at around $19.00 per hour and can go up to about a $85,000 a year salary.

Answer 3

Do you mean sales or profit? Sales vary much depending on what type of product they sell and where they are, competitors...etc...

Profit, on the other hand, is very different. Most major grocery retailers in the U.S., after everything is paid, only bring in b/t 1-3% of sales. Higher end, or "Up" grocery retailers have slightly higher margins. Remember, just because the grocery store over all makes 1-3% doesn't mean that they make that off of every product. Products with lower shelf life generally have higher shrink, which means a higher markup (meat, bakery, deli, produce). While on the other hand gm and dry groceries have a lower markup.

When grocery stores put a branded item on ad (I say branded because large retailers such as wal-mart, heb, kroger, generally have multiple brands, more than customers know) it is being subsidized by the manufacturer. Also consider loss leaders, when you buy that steak that is on sale from 8.99 down to 5.99 you are not going to go to a different retailer to get your potatoes. Get it?

Pharmacies and gas stations don't generally have that high margins, they just get you to shop there. Pharmacy may, but the cost of under the counter meds varies so you cant often compare stores including gas or pharmacy when comparing store sales. Also, not all stores have gas and pharmacies.

Hope this helps, not as simple as a one liner.
