It absolutely depends on the layout of the building and the sort of grocery store at hand. Proper building codes and zoning can prevent that same grocery store from being able to engage in certain practices that would negatively impact the health and security of those living in the building above. Should there be an industrial kitchen in the grocery store, zoning and building codes are used to insure that should there be a fire, it won't impact those living above, even though it absolutely increases the cost of construction (and sets minimums on what the cost of housing is).
