Are you really going to use OSM for looking up those specialty stores and see whether they sell item X ? I rather search the internet. After I read the shop's website and verified they sell X, I take their address and name and use those in e.g. OsmAnd to get me to the place. Where would you end up otherwise ? Tag all breads and the days they are available in a bakery ? All softdrinks and their brands available in a supermarket ? Of course for more tourist related features (cafes, pubs, hotels, etc, ) it's nice that I can find them directly via OsmAnd POIs without research on the internet. So I wonder whether it is not enough to have some rough classification for the shops you are describing with links to their websites so one can do a full text search there to see whether the shop fulfils one needs. regards m
