You could email the store and ask them where they got their images.  If they say they shot them personally, then they own the images.  You would need to ask the store for permission.  If not, maybe they will tell you who did.  Of course, they may be reluctant to give that information (or their permission) to someone who is competing with them.

It would probably be a lot simpler to just take your own photos.  A photo of an item is generally considered to be a fair use under copyright law.
