There's always Cite Europe near (part of, actually) the Channel Tunnel complex. Don't know how close that is to the airport?

There are numerous Hypermarkets in the "touristy" areas but this one is a bit closer..about 25-30min walk... but obviously not as large.
From the airport, follow the road to Marck Village. Cross over the "square" and bear right . Follow this road for about 200m and turn right at the end. (You are now in Marck Town). Take first main road left and Supermarket is 20-30m on right. A reasonable supply of beers and wines await you......enjoy

Flying Gunman,

Most of the "volume" booze shops are close to the A26 or A16. The nearest to Calais-Marck are shown on this map, the airport being to the east of the A26, roughly parallel to J3:
