Superstore offers a variety of products in six categories: Food & Grocery, Health & Beauty, Household Needs, Pet Care, Nutrition & Supplements, and Baby Care, along with separate sections for organic food, chocolates, etc. Superstore's launch comes soon after Souq.com's recent investment in InstaShop,which is part of its drive "to provide a world-class online shopping experience to customers."
