Business –Supermarkets are places where people visit to make quick purchases mostly in the evening and weekends.
The advantage of making purchases in a supermarket could be access to variety of items and self-service; and it is through that process of walking around the corners of the market that one can see an item he or she could not have remembered to buy.
Supermarkets also offer after-sale-service including warranty offers as well as credit card points that clients can convert later on after accumulation.
The only risk with supermarket items is the availability of expired products especially if the supermarket is not having enough customers to offload shelves fast.
And for the owners of the supermarket, they enjoy customer network, supplier availability who supply items on both offers and great discounts. This helps increase profits.
The danger with running a supermarket business is, if the management is bloated, the partners could break up and the entire empire brought down very fast.
Superstores like Turkeys, Nakumatt etc have come down despite their immense popularity around the continent.
Supermarkets are also capital and labour intensive businesses.
