Hello @Turloughdude! Grocery stores are possible since Get to Work in 2015. I have put a detailed explanation in the past and will post it here.
Hope this helps <3 !
Yes it is that is how I make grocery store in the game! <3
There is two fridge for retail store. The first one is the "Lize/Lice Cold Freezer" (forget the exact spelling but it is like that). You can put fruits, veggies, flowers, and fish on that fridge (I remember that the fridge was broken years ago where you cannot put fish anymore. I haven't check yet if it was fixed) I think it was fixed based on these bug with only two fruits not available https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-GTW-Herbs-amp-Spinach-can-t-be-added-to-Lice-Cold-Freezer/td-p/6914818
Anyways once you put them on that freezer they share inventory for all the lice cold freezer. So put them in different location at the store so sims will browse them at different spot.All items put on that fridge is already set for sale and you don't have to ring them up!.
Now if you wanted to have an NPC run a grocery store for you, all you have to do is to first put one fruit, veggies of each on the fridge. For example one apple. Then sell the store. When you visit the store and clicked on the fridge, you can buy unlimited amount of apples there. That way you have a working grocery system. If you own the store you have to restock the fruits but if you don't, you can buy as many as you want. There is an animation for it too.
For Food Items you will need another fridge I think it is a Cat rack Cooler fridge, a similar design with the Lice cold freezer but also came with get to work. It works the same with Lice Freezer except this time it is for Cooked and baked ready to eat foods. Of course you can also sell the store and buy unlimited amount of cakes there once your sim visit the shop. It's a cool feature.
One last thing. If you arae looking forward to running a business in TS4 and want a traditional business this mod is a must have!!

I remember running a bakery for like two years and being annoyed that my sims have to use the tablet just for sims to order a cupcake :D:D This mod is one of the best retail mods made for the game and customizable too! So say if you want an art gallery you can choose if you want to use the tablet or for a say toy store you can choose to use the register. It is really cool!
And for a more realistic look this mod too

It adds shopping bag makes the store realistic even more.
Happy Simming!!!
Hope this helps <3 !
