People prefer to go shopping in the supermarket rather than small shops and local markets. Do you think it is a positive or negative development?
Since the explosive development of supermarket in 1980s, there has been an inevitable trend that more customers chose to purchase their supplies in large facilities when some small businesses seem to be forgotten. Although supermarkets have undeniable advantage on convenience and diversity, its over-flourish may have critical side effects such as congested traffic, increasing unemployment rate and decline in the quality of life.
In general, small stores tend to locate in communities somewhere adjacent to resident and can be reached on foot. On the contrary, those who want to shopping in big supermarkets have no choice but take a long drive to the downtown since most of large businesses chose their site nearby enormous stream of people. Obviously, the more consumers drive to their daily supplier, the heavier the traffic will be which is already a huge burden for modern society.
Modern commerce, implemented highly efficient and automatic technology and management, require much less employees than conventional businesses. For example, the Wal-Mart located in the center of Beijing provided thousands kinds of products but only hired 20 workers at most. The over 300 small traditional stores around it within the area provided more than 1500 job opportunities are now squeezed by this immense and competitive monster. The direct effect is that the unemployment rate has raised 2% which have been demonstrated by economic scientists in Beijing University that was caused by Wal-Mart.
Owing the advanced domination of the market by crushing its enemy by efficient technology and competitive price, supermarkets would predictable increase the price of the products and service for more profits if competitions are vanished. It indicates that we would have to spend more on usual daily supplies such as food and fruit.
As experienced, both supermarkets and small shops have benefits. However, people’s bias preference will led to imbalanced economic system which will finally threaten the life of individual and the sustainable development of society.
