Need modeling help

I'm somewhat of a newbie at databases so please be gentle ;-)

I'm trying to construct a model for this situation:

Lets say I have thousands of retail stores, and a product catalog of thousands of items and each store carries some (hundreds) of those items.

I want to be able to look at a store and see which other stores carry the same items (they might also carry more).

I can think of very brute-force ways of doing this, but i'm a little concerned about processing time and i'm wondering if there isn't an elegant way of doing it?
