#club100 // Reviewing Local Business in my Town: The Vikih’s (T&K MotherCare Shop)

Introduction

Hello folks of the steemit platform, it’s weekend as usual and I hope we are all doing well. For me, I am still down health-wise but feeling better than the previous days. It is a cold weather here in my city and presently drizzling 🌧 but I think, it does not stop one from going about their daily activities.

I know most people do their shopping on weekends and I will like to talk about this shop. Many do not know about the shop but from my experience buying from the shop will save you some cash.

Many business owners in town have used the crisis pretext to increase prices of goods but at the Vikih’s, the prices will make you rethink of all the other shops that have been exploiting you.

Location of The Vikih’s Shop

The shop is located at Mile 3 Nkwen- Bamenda, in the North West Region-Cameroon. It is easy to locate as it is located along the N11 road after blue Pearl Hotel.

This area is a new business environment that started operational in 2021. There are several other shops located around but the Vikih’s is outstanding with quality of services, quality of goods, low prices, etc.

Items Sold at the Vikih’s

There are several items sold at the Vikih’s shop and the prices are affordable. They offer goods at wholesale prices for retailers and have direct contacts with factories in China, Turkey and Japan. So if you wish to open a mother care shop or owned one, I will advice you use the Vikih’s as your supplier.

Permit me to share some of the items sold at the Vikih’s shop as presented on the table below 👇 👇

Items	Size

For the prices, it is difficult for me to list out prices per item but I assure you that the prices are reasonable. I have visited several other shops in town and at the main market, the prices at the Vikih’s shop are the best amongst all.

Why Shop at the Vikih’s.

There must be a pull factor that attracts customers to a particular shop. The reasons why you should shop at the Vikih’s are as follows;

• Prices: As I earlier said, the prices at the Vikih’s shop are affordable. They offer goods at wholesale prices and customers are allowed to bargain on the prices.

• Quality of goods: The goods are of different quality depending on your price. They have high quality goods as well as low quality goods for those with low income.

• Available Parking Space: There are some shops that car owners cannot access it because of lack of parking spaces. Or at times, they are forced to park their vehicles somewhere else and trek to the store. The Vikih’s is different because there is parking space available for customers.

• Easy to Acess: The location of the store is not hidden in an interior area but is beside the road. It is easy to access even if you are not familiar with the environment. Just use your google map and you can easily access the shop.

• Receive payment via mobile money transfer or bank transfer: At times when we visit a shop and run out of physical cash but still have some items to buy. We are forced to go back home and come back another day. At the Vikih’s, you can pay for your items via MTN and Orange-Cameroon mobile money or better still do a bank transfer.

• Customer Service: In every business, if customer service is poor, then no one will ever recommend your business. I have been to this shop several times and I can testify that customer care here is the best.

Conclusion

In sum, I have given some of the items sold at the Vikih’s shop with some images of the shop. I have equally mentioned the reasons you should consider shopping at this shop. I have talked about the location of the shop and list out some of the items sold at the shop. This is weekend, try the Vikih’s shop and you will never go elsewhere to shop for your kids.
