Edmonton Cultural Grocery Store Passport & Giveaway

Join New Grocery Movement as we support local and promote cultural diversity in Edmonton! Cultural grocery stores not only provide cultural foods for many immigrant communities, but also act as a portal for everyone to explore cuisine from around the world. Also, supporting local grocery stores is a great way to keep money in the local economy and divert from corporate grocery chains. Keep scrolling to learn more.

Giveaway Rules:

  1. Visit at least one of the stores on the Cultural Grocery Passport. Making a purchase is NOT REQUIRED to enter the giveaway and all participants have an equal chance of winning. However, you can support the stores if you’d like! (stores listed below)

  2. Enter the giveaway through this form by submitting a picture that proves you visited a store. The image can be a picture inside the store (you don’t have to be in the image) or a receipt from the store. Images will be kept private and will not be shared outside of NGM. The purpose of the image is to act as proof that you visited a store.

  3. You get a new entry for each store you visit (multiple entries means a higher chance to win!) but only one entry per store

  4. Each store visit requires a new form entry (eg. visiting all 4 stores means completing 4 form submissions)

  5. Passport launches April 25, 2025 and draw happens on June 25, 2025

  6. There are 6 chances to win! The grand prize is a grocery gift basket valued at $100 that includes delicious products and snacks from the participating stores and a locally crafted tote bag. You could also win 1 of 5 locally crafted tote bags designed by an incredible local Edmonton artist, Niabi Kapoor. You can find her work on Instagram @kniabiiii.
