Food & Grocery

Groceries at Metromart:

The weekly shop is the least interesting and most necessary thing anyone buys, and it's the one where getting it delivered saves the most time. Metromart stocks the full list — the staples that run out, the things you only notice when they're gone, and the occasional item worth ordering rather than hunting for. Staples and cooking essentials make up most of it. Rice in everyday and aromatic varieties, cooking oil and ghee, spices and spice powders, sauces and condiments, and the dry goods that sit at the back of the cupboard until they're needed.

Dairy and fresh covers milk and milk powder, eggs, cheese and ponir.

Everyday food runs from noodles and oats to chocolate, candy and nuts — the things bought on impulse as much as on a list. Baking needs holds flour, corn flour, and the supplies for anyone who bakes at home rather than occasionally. Fruits, dry vegetables and functional foods round out the range for households buying beyond the basics. So, buying groceries is 

Buying well:

Check the price per unit rather than per pack. Larger packs usually cost less per kilo or litre, but not always — it's worth the few seconds of arithmetic on anything you buy regularly, because the saving compounds across a year of weekly orders.

Buy dry goods in quantities you'll actually use. Rice, flour and spices all keep well in principle, but Bangladesh's humidity works against them. A large bag that sits open for two months costs more in waste than the bulk discount saved. Store dry goods in airtight containers rather than the bags they arrive in.

Whole spices keep longer than ground. Ground spices lose aroma within months of opening; whole spices hold for far longer and can be ground as needed. If you cook often, buying whole and grinding is both cheaper and better.

Watch for offers on things you already buy. Promotions run regularly across staples, and stocking up on something you use weekly is genuinely worth it — unlike stocking up on something you don't.

Ordering and delivery:

Set your delivery location before you shop, since availability and timing vary by area. Chilled and frozen items are packed appropriately; dry goods and ambient products arrive as you'd expect.

For bulk, office or event orders, contact support directly rather than adding units one at a time — case rates are usually available and it's considerably faster. The full range is also stocked across Metromart outlets if you'd rather collect or see something in person.

How to find what you need:

Browse by category above, or use the search if you know what you're after. Every category breaks down into subcategories — beverages into soft drinks, fruit drinks and drink powders, for instance — so you can narrow down quickly rather than scrolling a long list. If you shop by brand, the brands page lists everything stocked, which is usually faster when you know exactly what you want.

Physical outlets: 

Metromart operates physical stores alongside the online shop. If you'd rather see something before buying, or need it the same hour, the outlets page lists locations. Browse our outlets here. 

Frequently Asked Questions: 

What can I buy in Food & Grocery? 

Rice, cooking oil and ghee, spices, sauces, dairy, eggs, noodles, baking supplies, chocolate, nuts, fruit, ice cream and more. It covers the weekly shop and most of what sits in a store cupboard.

Do you deliver fresh and chilled items? 

Yes — chilled and frozen goods are packed for transit. Get them into the fridge or freezer promptly on arrival rather than leaving the order to unpack later.

Is it cheaper to buy larger packs? 

Usually, but not always. Check the price per kilo or litre rather than assuming — on some products the larger pack is priced at exactly proportional value, which means no saving at all for the extra commitment. It takes a few seconds and it's worth doing on anything you buy every week.

How should I store rice, flour and spices? 

Airtight containers, somewhere cool and dry, away from the stove. Humidity is what ruins dry goods here, not age. If you buy a large pack, split it into smaller containers rather than opening the same one daily.

Do you sell whole spices as well as ground? 

Ground spice powders are stocked across the Spice & Herb subcategory. Whole spices keep their aroma far longer than ground, so if you cook often it's worth buying whole where available and grinding as needed.

Can I order groceries in bulk for an office or event? 

Yes. Set a higher quantity at checkout, or contact support on WhatsApp (01805552413) for case rates — better value and faster than adding units individually.

Are online prices the same as in the outlets? 

Prices and promotions can differ between online and in-store. The price shown at checkout applies to your order.

What if an item is out of stock or missing from my delivery? 

Check your order while the delivery rider is present and contact support on WhatsApp (01805552413) or Messenger straight away.
