How we picked these grocery and supermarket templates
We searched the Next Gen Templates catalog of roughly 6,900 products for anything built for grocery stores, supermarkets, convenience stores and general stores. We kept paid templates that track sales, stock, margin or store performance, and that exist in a format a store team already uses.
Where the same tool exists in Excel, Google Sheets and Power BI, we included more than one format so you can choose the one your team opens daily. We excluded generic retail dashboards with no grocery angle. For those, see our guide to retail and e-commerce dashboard templates.
All prices and feature descriptions come from the product pages. We have not run your store’s data through them, so test with a month of your own figures before you roll out.
What are the 8 best grocery store dashboard templates for 2026?
The ranking weighs three things: how much of a grocery operation the file covers, how easily a non-analyst can update it, and price. Each template below says who it suits and what you get.
1. Supermarkets Dashboard in Excel: best overall
This is a ready-made Excel workbook that turns supermarket sales data into five analytical pages. It ranks first because it answers the questions a multi-store owner asks most: which store, which region and which category makes the money.
Who it is for: supermarket owners, managers and analysts, from one store to a chain.
- Five pages: Overview, Store Analysis, Regional Analysis, Product Category Analysis and Monthly Trends, plus a support sheet for backend data.

- Auto data refresh with one click.
Use cases:
- Rank your stores by profit and customer rating to find the one that needs a visit.

Price: $17.99. Get the Supermarkets Dashboard in Excel.
Best for: owners who run more than one store and live in Excel.
2. Supermarkets Dashboard in Google Sheets: best value
At $9.99 this is the cheapest template in the list and one of the deepest. It is a six-page Google Sheets report driven by native pivot tables, with 500 sample records you replace with your own.

- Footfall of 23,158 against 16,195 baskets gives you a conversion view by store.
Price: $9.99. Get the Supermarkets Dashboard in Google Sheets.
Best for: the lowest price with the widest set of grocery metrics, including shrinkage and footfall.
3. Grocery Store KPI Dashboard in Excel
This Excel workbook is built around KPIs rather than transaction records. It is the one to pick if you want a single sheet that tells you how the store is doing against its numbers.

4. Grocery Store KPI Dashboard in Power BI
The Power BI version of the grocery KPI dashboard has three interactive pages and takes its data from structured Excel input sheets, so updating it does not need Power BI skills.
Who it is for: grocery managers and teams already licensed for Power BI, or chains that want to scale from one store to many.
- Summary page with slicers for month and KPI group, KPI count and MTD and YTD status.
- KPI Trend page with combo charts of Actual, Target and Previous Year.

Use cases:

Price: $11.99. Get the Grocery Store KPI Dashboard in Power BI.

5. Supermarkets Dashboard in Power BI
This is the Power BI counterpart to our best overall pick. It connects to your data sources and aggregates sales, store, regional and product category metrics into interactive pages.
Who it is for: supermarket managers, analysts and executives who want slicers, filters and drill-through.

- Use category views to understand customer preferences.
- Use monthly trends to forecast future performance.
Price: $17.99. Get the Supermarkets Dashboard in Power BI.

6. Grocery Store KPI Dashboard in Google Sheets
A KPI dashboard built entirely in Google Sheets, with a month selector, MTD, YTD and year-on-year comparisons, and separate tabs for actual numbers and targets.
Who it is for: store managers, owners and analysts who want a shared, browser-based KPI file.
- Dashboard tab with a month selection cell (D3) that updates every KPI.

Price: $9.99. Get the Convenience Store KPI Dashboard in Google Sheets.

8. General Store POS Web App
This is not a dashboard. It is a Google Sheets web app that runs a general store, grocery shop or mini-mart from one browser tab, and it includes an 8-KPI sales dashboard and 19 built-in reports. We list it because many readers searching for a dashboard actually need the till as well.
Who it is for: grocery shop owners who want billing, inventory and reporting in one place without a monthly POS subscription.
- 20 connected screens covering billing, counters, picking queue, inventory, purchases, suppliers, customers, shifts and expenses.
- Touch-friendly POS with SKU and barcode search and product cards by category.
- Walk-in counters, delivery lanes and pickup slots, with a picking queue that moves Pending, Preparing, Ready, Served.

Price: $39.99. Get the General Store POS Web App.
Best for: a single grocery shop that needs a till and reports together.
How do I choose between these grocery dashboard templates?
Start with the question you ask most often, then pick the format your team already opens. This table maps one to the other.
| If your main question is… | Choose | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Which store, region or category earns the most? | Supermarkets Dashboard (Excel, Sheets or Power BI) | $17.99, $9.99, $17.99 |
| Are we hitting our KPI targets this month? | Grocery Store KPI Dashboard (Excel, Power BI or Sheets) | $12.99, $11.99, $9.99 |
| How is a small convenience shop doing? | Convenience Store KPI Dashboard in Google Sheets | $9.99 |
| Do I need a till as well as reports? | General Store POS Web App | $39.99 |
Then apply the format rule: Excel if one person maintains it, Google Sheets if several people update it, Power BI if head office reports to executives and already has licences.
Which grocery metrics should the dashboard show?
Whatever template you choose, check that it shows these figures, and that you can calculate them from your own data. The sample numbers come from the Google Sheets Supermarkets Dashboard.
| Metric | Formula | Sample reading |
|---|---|---|
| Average basket value | Total sales / number of baskets | $346,763 / 16,195 = $21.41 |
| Gross margin | (Sales – cost of goods) / sales | 25.3% |
| Shrinkage rate | Shrinkage value / total sales | $5,284 / $346,763 = 1.52% |
| Conversion rate | Baskets / footfall | 16,195 / 23,158 = about 70% |
| Sales per visitor | Total sales / footfall | $346,763 / 23,158 = about $14.97 |
Grocery net margins are commonly cited as very thin, often 1% to 3% of sales, according to industry bodies such as the Food Industry Association (FMI). That is why a shrinkage rate of 1.52% matters: on thin margins, a point of loss is a large share of your profit. Check the current figures for your own market before you set targets.
A worked example: finding the weak store
Say a three-store owner loads the last quarter into a Supermarkets dashboard. The overview shows a healthy average basket, so nothing looks wrong. On the store page, one outlet has the same sales as the others but a lower customer rating and lower profit.
On the category page, the margin gap traces to one department with heavy shrinkage. You now have a specific conversation to have with that store manager, rather than a vague one about performance. That is the practical gain from a dashboard: it narrows a general worry to a store, a department and a figure.

When is a dashboard template NOT the right answer for a grocery store?
A template is the wrong tool in several situations, and it is better to know them before you buy.
- You need live till data. The KPI dashboards and Supermarkets dashboards read data you enter or paste. If you want sales to flow in from the register automatically, you need POS software such as Square, Lightspeed or Shopify POS, or the General Store POS Web App for a single shop.
- You need barcode-level stock control. A dashboard reports on stock. It does not receive deliveries, count shelves or generate purchase orders. For that, use inventory software or the POS app.
- You run a large chain with an existing data warehouse. If IT already feeds a BI platform, building a custom model there may be better than adapting a template.
- Nobody will update the data. A dashboard with last quarter’s numbers is worse than none. If no one owns the monthly input, fix that first.
- You are an online grocer. Delivery windows, basket abandonment and ad spend need e-commerce metrics. Start with the retail and e-commerce templates instead.
Also note that the Power BI templates need Power BI Desktop to open. Check Microsoft’s current Power BI pricing if you plan to share reports with colleagues, as sharing can need paid licences.
Frequently asked questions
What is a grocery store dashboard template?

Which grocery store dashboard template is best overall?
The Supermarkets Dashboard in Excel ($17.99) is our best overall pick. It has five analytical pages covering overview, store, region, product category and monthly trends, with KPI cards for sales, profit margin, top brands and average customer rating. It suits owners with more than one outlet.
What is the cheapest supermarket dashboard template?
The Supermarkets Dashboard in Google Sheets is $9.99. It has six pages, 18 charts, 15 slicers and 500 sample records, and covers sales, basket value, gross margin, shrinkage, availability and footfall. The Grocery Store and Convenience Store KPI dashboards in Google Sheets are also $9.99.
Can I build a grocery dashboard in Google Sheets?
Yes. The Supermarkets Dashboard in Google Sheets uses native pivot tables, so you make a copy, paste your records over the sample rows and every chart redraws. The Grocery Store KPI Dashboard in Google Sheets uses a month selector and a separate Actual Numbers tab instead.
Should I use Excel, Google Sheets or Power BI for a grocery dashboard?
Use Excel if one person maintains the file, Google Sheets if several staff update it from different places, and Power BI if head office reports to executives and already has licences. All three formats exist for both the Supermarkets and the Grocery Store KPI dashboards.
What KPIs should a grocery store track?
Track sales by day and month, average basket value, gross margin, shrinkage, stock availability, stock turnover, footfall, conversion and customer satisfaction such as NPS. The Grocery Store KPI Dashboard in Excel ($12.99) covers sales, turnover, NPS and profit margins in one file.
How do I calculate average basket value?
Divide total sales by the number of baskets (transactions) in the same period. In the sample data of the Supermarkets Dashboard in Google Sheets, $346,763 in sales across 16,195 baskets gives an average basket value of $21.41. Track it monthly to see the effect of promotions.
What is a normal shrinkage rate for a supermarket?
It varies by store type and category, so use your own history as the baseline rather than a single industry number. The sample chain in the Google Sheets Supermarkets Dashboard shows $5,284 of shrinkage, which is 1.52% of sales. The template breaks it down by region and category.
Do I need a POS system as well as a dashboard?
Usually yes. A dashboard reports on data, and a POS records the sales. The General Store POS Web App ($39.99) combines billing, inventory and reports for a single grocery shop. Larger stores typically export from an existing POS into a dashboard template.
