Best Portuguese online supermarkets 2022 rating
e-grocery rating 2022 results: research of digital customer experience
As mentioned in the e-grocery rating Portugal 2022 launch announcement, Customer Experience Studio “Pulse” completed the research of the Portuguese online supermarkets' functionality and revealed the rating. Previously we announced the study of 300 features in Portuguese online supermarkets, but finally, we studied 700 features in every of 10 online supermarkets.
This article is a demo report of the research, to have a consultation and buy the full version, please contact us.
Concept
e-grocery rating 2022 Portugal is annual syndicated research of digital customer experience in Portuguese online supermarkets.
We research and evaluate the features that are presented on the way of a customer through the online groceries shopping process.
A syndicated type of research is been performed by an independent side, our studio, for the interest of many market players. This model allows retailers to buy research reports for a more beneficial price than
- if they’d order customised research of the market,
- if they’d distract the resources of employees from their business area to perform the research.
Objectives
1. reveal the benchmark and bring the independent observation of the e-grocery market functionality level,
2. create a rating of the best e-grocery stores on the Portuguese market,
3. provide retailers with relevant information about the actual state of their online supermarkets and best competitors’ practices,
4. motivate companies to invest in the digital customer experience evolution to bring it to a new level.

Methodology of the research
Participants
The list of the participants was composed based on 3 characteristics, the retailer both
- sells groceries,
- has a chain of physical stores in Portugal, and
- has an online store in operation (web version).
Research phases
Customer Journey steps through the online supermarket
To shape the feature set by customers’ steps through the online supermarket, Customer Journey Map was created.
It contains:
- customers’ goals and expectations at every phase based on the interviews with the customers,
- touchpoints and the process were defined to be reflected to the online supermarkets’ functionality checklist.
Functionality checklist
The checklist consists of 8 groups of features and is a reflection of the digital customer journey’s steps through the online grocery store.
A set of features from the checklist is considered for further rating as 100% of an ideal online supermarket.
The final score for every retailer is calculated based on the number of features presented in online stores, and it’s the base of the e-grocery stores’ rating.
