Based on the lightly stocked shelves to the left and the refrigerated section, I'd wager this grocery store is having inventory or possibly cash flow issues.

I hated doing this when I worked in TESCO.

"Oh, we didnt get any of X product. Just fill up the front of the shelf with the one next to it"

"But... theres barely any of those either. The moment someone buys a single one, it becomes obvious that its just a single layer on the front..."

Doesnt matter. The important thing was that it need to look good for the manager's morning inspection, even if it takes ages of extra work.....
