various countries. The competition continuously arises between the domestic and local goods. Buyers are being persuaded to purchase

food

from abroad since it offers great quality, but some customers prefer domestic because of some important reasons like; products are more trusted and worthy, and it can be a greater help to the progress of the economy. In my observation, consuming domestic

. Both local and imported goods are being displayed in racks for options. But as I observed, most of the Filipinos preferred locally produced products like meat and vegetables since they are more trusted, and they know where it comes from. Aside from that, prices are more affordable compared to imported products.

In addition
