Weekly Markets

>> Held on a specific day of the week.
>> Don’t have permanent shops.
>> Traders set up shops for the day and then close them up in the evening. Then they may set up at a different place the next day.

Goods are available at a cheaper price in weekly markets because:
(1) Shops in weekly markets are not permanent and they don’t have to pay for rents, electricity bills, or any other expenses.
(2) Family members work together in such shops. So, workers are not hired and salaries are also not paid.
(3) There is competition among the sellers and goods are cheaply available after bargaining.
(4) The quality of goods is also lower in weekly markets.

People go to the weekly market because:
(1) Most of the things from daily needs are available in one place. People don’t have to go to different places.
(2) Rates are cheaper.
(3) People have a variety and a choice of goods.

Shopping Complexes and Malls
