grocery retail (trade)
Explanation:
Your exact context would be helpful here. This is the common term for general use -- and you can find lots of references, including the Swedish industry association by that name.

'FMGC' is a term used in investing and fund management that covers your term but is not used more generally.

food retail trade


Explanation:
Svensk Dagligvaruhandel is the trade organisation which they translate into English as the Swedish Food Retailers Federation. It would therefore seem reasonable to me to use the term "food retail trade" which is exactly what Lidl is involved in.

snabbköp could mean "supermarket" or self-service store; but that would be back in the 1950s. (https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snabbköp)
I am just gessing, as I haven't seen the video, but in your context it seems that you are referring to 24 hour markets or "24 hour shops"
