Due to the development and rapid expansion of supermarkets in some countries, many small, local businesses are unable to compete. Some people think that the closure of local business will bring about the death of local communities.
To what extent do you agree or disagree.
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.
The proliferation of supermarkets in rural and urban areas is on the rise. It is thought to be beneficial by some and damaging to the local businesses by others.
