終わる to mean closed shop


Is it a natural or at least used way to say "closed" like in that example,
using the verb 終わる ?

>   * A : 今7時ですが、スーパーは終わりましたか。
>   * B : いいえ、8時まで開いているはずですよ。

Yes, it's used, but 終わっていますか may be more natural since you are concerned with
the current state rather than the past event. 閉店していますか is a stiffer way of
asking the same thing (preferred in emails etc), but 終わっていますか is perfectly
fine in speech.
