[Burnsteem25]Steemit Engagement Challenge S4-W1|Traditional Retail Shopping @forhadmiya[club75]🇧🇩
Assalamu Alaikum, dear brothers and sisters, how are you all? By the grace of Allah, you are all well. I am also fine by God's grace. Today I'm going to participate in a nice and interesting contest which is Steem Engagement Challenge Season-4 going on in the @Steem-Entrepreneur community. The core of this competition is traditional retail shopping. I will try to explain it nicely below.
We are all aware that the entire world has been severely affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. Not only the health problem but also the economic sector, the education sector is heavily affected. The covid-19 pandemic is a major disaster in social and economic activities of Bangladesh in 2020. Due to covid-19 people's purchasing power is reduced. Due to this huge epidemic falling on the retail traders, they have suffered severe losses.
Retail business is where the producer buys the product from a source and delivers it to the final consumer. A person who sells goods through retail trade is a retailer.
if a person or establishment sells a product (example : oil, rice, pulses, toothpaste, etc.) to those who purchase the product for personal consumption, then that person or establishment is considered to be engaged in retail trade. Retailers mainly sell goods to final consumers for non-commercial use.
The location or place of retail business is not too far from our house. That place of retail trade is known as Current Bazar. We have this market in many types of retail business. Apart from our village, people from 6-7 other villages go there to buy. About 5000-7000 people buy goods from that market.
I purchase merchandise from a retailer I know from this market. I buy various types of products from him. By doing this, he gets good quality products at low prices. But one thing is that retail businesses buy products from wholesalers at a low price and buy products from us in the hope of making some profit. 90 percent of our people buy products from retailers. We shop for the house two days a week. I also love buying merchandise from retail businesses. Because quality products are available overall from them. Moreover, they have freedom of purchase and bargaining.
I will try to summarize with everyone how many products that I buy for my family members are converted to steem in our country's currency.

I tried to highlight some of the reasons why I enjoy shopping at traditional retail stores.
1.The market is very close from my house so it doesn't take much time to come. We sometimes have the facility of going to the market by motorcycle, autorickshaw, van.
2.In this market, the retail traders can find fresh and quality all market items.
3.No retailer keeps expired products in their stores.
4.Retailers offer low prices and products as familiar faces without any negotiation for transactions.
5.If the product is defective, there is an opportunity to return it to the next day and retake the product.
6.We also purchase merchandise from time to time.

Thanks all,
@forhadmiya.
In response to your initial question, I'm fine thanks to God and I'm glad you are too.hey, you can see a lot of freshness and charm in the photos you show, you can see that they are fresh products and that's very important.the fact that they offer affordable prices is a great advantage.thanks for this virtual trip
Thank you so much for your nice comment. Yes they are fresh produce it is necessary for all of us. And those products can be reached by the buyers to the sellers at a low price.
I can see why people from nearby villages travels to this market to buy their goods.
Those veggies from the market looks so fresh!
And now I wonder. What do they do with the products they don't sell? Do they sell them at a discount price or do they donate it to charity organizations?
Good luck with the contest!
Thank you for the invite!

Ma'am retailers have no customers in their shops except me when they sell their products. That time is lunch break for retailers. They are not selling any products at discount. But there is an opportunity for negotiation.
Ah! Negotiations! It is good that they allow that.
Thanks for explaining!

Hola amigo @forhadmiya
los minoristas son loque venden productos alconsumidor final, y los que evenden verduras y frutas, teinden a colocar ofertas cunado sus productos se están empezando a deteriorar, mientars que los productos frescos son los que mejor venden.
Los minoristas tienden a ser una alternativa para aquellos que no pueden hacer comprar de mayoreo, ya que para ello se requiere de mucho dinero.
Gracias por comparirlo.
Saludos.
