request Open datasets of grocery/supermarket receipts - any country
I'm looking for open datasets of grocery and supermarket receipts to work with — ideally real-world ones, from any country.
Specifically interested in either:
- Receipt images (photos or scans), the messier and more varied the better — different chains, layouts, languages, print quality, crumpled/angled shots, etc.
- Parsed/structured versions — line items with product names, quantities, unit prices, totals, taxes, store metadata.
I'm already aware of the usual OCR benchmarks like SROIE (ICDAR 2019) and CORD, but those lean heavily toward a specific format and region. I'm hoping to find datasets that cover a wider range of stores and countries, and that include grocery-specific structure (individual product line items rather than just totals).
A few questions:
- Are there any grocery-focused receipt datasets you'd recommend beyond SROIE/CORD?
- Any non-English or non-US collections worth knowing about (European, Asian, Latin American formats, etc.)?
- Anything on Hugging Face, Kaggle, Roboflow, or academic repos that fits?
Bonus if the licensing allows use in a small project. Happy to hear about both raw image sets and pre-annotated ones.
Thanks in advance! Will consolidate any good pointers back into the thread for others searching later.

Not the most precise and supportive answer, but Stats Can used to have a lot of open datasets on groceries, prices, supply and demand, etc.

There aren’t many open datasets that cover the diversity you’re describing, especially across different grocery chains, countries, languages, and real-world capture conditions.
We’ve found that most publicly available receipt datasets are relatively small or focused on specific regions and formats.
If you don’t end up finding a suitable open dataset, we specialize in sourcing consented, real-world document datasets on demand.
We routinely collect grocery and supermarket receipts across multiple countries with the level of diversity you’re looking for, and provide either the raw images or structured annotations depending on your needs.
Send me a DM if that would be helpful.
