grocery section

Supermarket product area

A grocery section is a designated area within a store where food and household consumables are sold.

Larger retailers like Target or Walmart have grocery sections alongside clothing, electronics, and other departments: I'll meet you in the grocery section after I check out the shoes.

The term distinguishes food aisles from other merchandise areas in stores that sell multiple categories of goods.
