METRO Supermarket Locations Dataset – Germany

METRO is a leading international wholesale company in Germany, catering primarily to the hotel, restaurant, and catering (HoReCa) industry. While it requires a trade membership, it is a massive player in the food distribution landscape.

There are 95 METRO Supermarkets as of 27 May 2026 in Germany. This dataset is compiled and maintained by Geolocet and provides a complete, geocoded list of all METRO locations, including full address details, administrative divisions, and precise WGS84 latitude/longitude coordinates - structured for GIS, retail analytics, mapping, and AI/RAG workflows.

Dataset Methodology:

This dataset is compiled from publicly available business listings, official company sources, and geospatial validation workflows. Automated quality checks and manual analyst reviews are applied to improve coordinate precision, address standardisation, duplicate detection, and overall analytical consistency.

It is periodically reviewed and updated to reflect known network changes, closures, relocations, and newly identified locations.
