It used to be called the grocery industry, now it’s just called FMCG. FMCG is an ugly acronym for Fast Moving Consumer Goods, which translated into English means 'things you buy on a regular basis at places like your local supermarket.' Things like butter, potato chips, toothpaste, and razors.
Other abreviations close or part of FMCG:
CPG (Consumer Packaged Goods)
CP&R (Consumer Products and Retail)
