SLC31-W6 || Our Surroundings A Series of Real Life Experiences ; Grocery Shop & Super Shop

Hello friends, I hope you are all well. For the last week of the Steemit Challenge contest, I will be sharing visit to a super shop. I would like to thank the organizers of this challenge, and without further delay, I am starting my participation.

What is the name of the grocery shop or super shop you visited? What types of products are available there?

---

I have visited Shawpno super shop. It is the largest online and offline super market in Bangladesh where thousands of products are available. It is a super market as well as a grocery store, and besides that, cosmetic items, electronics items, home appliances, utensils, and quite a few ceramics products are available here.

Shawpno super shop has many branches. However, most of the outlets are located at various important points in the cities. Towards the villages and Upazilas, at most one outlet can be found. I visited an Upazila outlet; it cannot exactly be called a flagship store because there are no meat items here, but this outlet still has countless products.

Operational history & Location (Steem Atlas pin)

---

In October 2008, Shawpno started its journey in Bangladesh. It was established under ACI Limited. In the beginning, it started its journey with only grocery products; gradually, it included almost all products and has now turned into a super market. The outlets remain open from 8:30 AM to 10:00 PM.

It's located on Ground floor Secure City, Sitakunda Upazila. Currently, they have 750+ outlets all over Bangladesh. Previously, outlets used to be launched targeting commercial divisions, but now it has spread across almost all divisions. They have even run campaigns like sourcing products directly from farmers, which has greatly boosted the growth of our country's business.

How was your shopping experience at the shop? Also, what is your brief evaluation of the price and quality of the products?

During my recent visit, I saw quite a few products at this outlet. I mainly wanted to buy almonds. In this supermarket, almost all products are packaged. Almonds are also available in packets, but when I went, they were out of stock. After that, I walked around for a while and looked at the rest of the products to buy.

I noticed chia seeds in a 100gm container. I usually buy chia seeds loose in wholesale, where a good quantity can be obtained according to the amount of money. However, many times one cannot be sure about their quality. So, I decided to buy the one with Shawpno's branding this time to test it out.

This container was 100 gm, and the price written on its pack was 103 taka/15.82 STEEM. I found the price reasonable according to the product's quality, although it would have cost even less if I had bought it loose from the wholesale market. And the experience of buying anything at Shawpno is wonderful because everything here is digital and quality is maintained.

Environmental impact & (With pictures + videos)

---

Shawpno's outlets look quite beautiful, and their environment is arranged in such a way that customers do not feel bored even if they shop here for a long time. Actually, it is a marketing strategy of super markets that they want customers to buy more and more products from their outlets.

As a customer myself, I can say that their environment will satisfy any customer, and there is no reason not to be. Seeing products arranged so beautifully and in such a comfortable and pleasant environment, any customer would want to spend more time; I also like shopping here.

The outlet's management is very good, and the staff members who are there also greatly help customers find their required products. I noticed one thing: they keep the main grocery products at the very back so that while walking towards the front, customers get attracted by seeing the other products.

All the products are arranged category-wise within the shelves. That means if it is a detergent item, all companies' detergent powders are there; if it is a noodle item, all noodle items are placed on the shelves this way, and they are so organized that it looks good to see.
