_{^{The Cover Photo}}

Assalamualaikum, I begin my post today by wishing everyone good health. I am back with you again today to participate in a contest. I had a great experience participating in this wonderful contest. In fact, we always go to the market and shop. Last night I went to the vegetable market, it is an open market where different types of vegetables are available. My family loves to eat vegetables and we need a lot of them.

✓ Tell us why you chose that street or open market.

There is a constant demand for vegetables in our family. And I personally am a diabetic, so I have to eat a lot of vegetables. Overall, we decided to buy vegetables from this open market because vegetables are available here at very low prices. Again, it is located at Bhaluka bus stand so you don't have to go far. And I have a good relationship with this vegetable seller, so when I go to buy vegetables, I go to his shop first.

✓ The price of the item you purchased from the street or the open market

I bought potatoes, bitter gourd, tomatoes and kankarol from this shop. I like to eat these vegetables. And since I have diabetes, I always have to eat bitter gourd.

✓ Describe your shopping experience, including pricing, bargaining, and product quality

I told you at the beginning that I know this vegetable shop and they are trying to do business very honestly. In fact, the prices of various goods are constantly increasing. To tell the truth, the prices of every vegetable are very high these days. Which is going beyond the reach of middle class people like us. I buy vegetables from this shopkeeper sometimes and he tries to get me as low a price as possible. My experience buying vegetables from this shop is very good. I buy vegetables from this shop at a fair price, unlike other shops where the price of each product is 10 to 20 taka higher. I have had a very good experience buying vegetables from this store and I am happy. And the quality of the vegetables in this shop is very good and they try to sell fresh vegetables.

✓ In some places street or open markets usually cause traffic describe how busy the street or open market is

_{^{Lot's of people around the shop}}

In fact, these sidewalk shops are always crowded with customers, especially since the prices are a little lower, so people try to buy more from here. And since this shop is located right next to the main bus stand, there is always a huge traffic jam here, which makes it difficult for vehicles to move around. Overall, this shop is a very busy shop, there is a constant rush of people and it creates a traffic jam on the main road.

✓ What is your advice to the street or open market sellers to improve business performance?

In fact, such vegetable shops should be located away from the main road and it is better to have them as close to the main market as possible. Because if such mobile shops are set up along the main road, it creates traffic jams on the road and sometimes rickshaw vans run over customers' houses, which causes various types of accidents. Moreover, shopkeepers face great difficulty in doing business here on rainy days or very sunny days, so it is better if they have a permanent place or a small place next to the main market. Moreover, if they can somehow arrange a roof over their heads, their business will become quite established there, which will further increase their business.
