    This is a common model in many parts of the world, but these small shops are usually run by big chains as well and come with a significant price mark-up compared to the larger supermarkets at the town periphery.

    It is convenient for sure, but if you really calculate it you quickly realize that they are quite a rip-off.

    The better model is probably to do group purchasing and direct deliveries from farm cooperatives to apartment complexes or similar methods.
