Where to buy groceries

Counts cover grocery/general stores identified in the FCNQ contact list, Northern store locator and KRG food program. They are not an inventory of every shop, convenience store or home business. Confirm hours and availability locally.

Selection and deliveries vary. Before moving, ask about dietary staples, baby supplies, household items and ordering ahead.
