A superette is an alternative name for a compact supermarket or "mini-mart".

In French, the ette ending conveys the idea of a smaller version of a supermarket (supermarché). However, supermarket has been shortened to super - leaving superette as an unusual example of a prefix and suffix with no stem word.^[1]

The word is used in some places, particularly in New Hampshire, Hawaii, New York City, Boston, Minnesota, rural North Carolina, and the North Island of New Zealand,^[2] and is a regular expression in the French language. In France, convenience stores are usually called supérettes when those are the sole convenience stores of a small town, to portray how their supplied inventory is similar to supermarkets' but their stocking capacity is reduced to the demand of the town.^[3] It is also used in Serbian legislation (Serbian: supereta/суперета) to designate grocery stores with a net area between 200 and 400 m².^[4]
