Advantages of shops in the neighbourhood
Proximity: As the name suggests these shops are in our neighbourhood and hence close to our homes.
Open all days: These shops, unlike weekly markets, operate on all days. Hence we can go for our purchases on any day of the week at our convenience.
Flexibility: Since the buyer and seller know each other these shops give goods on credit also. Hence payment can be made later also. In other words, there is flexibility regarding payment.
Personal touch: Since the buyer and seller know each other, the transaction has a personal touch to it. It is not a purely commercial transaction.
