The incident took place at a shopping mall in Songjiang, a densely populated district in the city's south-west, which is also home to several universities.
Police said the three people who died succumbed to their injuries at hospital. The others "did not sustain life-threatening wounds" and are not believed to be in danger.
"There was blood everywhere," an eyewitnes[sic] surnamed Shi told BBC News.
Mr Shi, who runs a jewellery store at the ground floor of the Ludu International Commercial Plaza, said dozens of firefighters and special weapons and tactics (SWAT) officers entered the mall, and asked people to evacuate.
Discussions about the incident now appear to have been censored on Chinese social media.
The supermarket was open for business on Tuesday but with additional security.
Firearms are banned in China but the country has seen a spate of knife attacks in recent months.
Last month, a 10-year-old Japanese student died a day after he was stabbed near his school in southern China.
In June this year, four US college instructors were stabbed in a public park in the northeast city of Jilin. In May, a man stabbed dead two people and wounded 21 others at a hospital in the southern province of Yunnan.

Not even allowed to peacefully speculate what the hell just happened! Rumors must be swirling by now.
It must have been a fully automatic knife with a high capacity magazine.

First time I’ve heard that......the most effective tactic the dispicable media uses is silence.
I had a friend visiting another friend in Beijing some years ago. She witnessed a young man stabbing at older man in an outdoor shopping area she was in. The perp left the older man bleeding. My friend, a foreigner in China, went, alone, to try to aid the victim. His attacker returned, saw my friend helping his victim and stabbed her, 17 times. She died there in Beijing.
Horrible.
Attention Warmalt Shoppels
Chinese Walmart eh? Well at least the shipping costs are low.
I bet it was due to the CCCP not fully funding of “gender affirming care”. And fully embracing DEI.
Too soon? Are you Arec Bardrin?
Does a Walmart in China sell mostly American made goods?
:)
Only during Brue Right Speciare
Mamas, don’t let your children go to Shanghai Walmarts.
In the grocery store yes. Walmart is trusted to not sell counterfeit goods. They out competed the French big box Carrefour
How horrible! Prayers for her!
Bad rink.
