In conclusion, despite the wide range of consistent options available for consumers, the rise of corporate power is damaging generally. It is therefore important for individual nations to curb this trend when possible.

Many people believe that increasing ubiquity in terms of the selection of

products

in shops is a positive trend. In my opinion,

this

is advantageous for convenience, ,

its wider implications make it a negative overall. On the positive side,

this

development guarantees a consistent customer experience. An individual who is travelling abroad,

for example

, can go into most major convenience stores and find the same basic necessities they would expect in their home country. The

products

themselves are

also

more consistent. Since they are manufactured and distributed globally, food

products

have the same safety standards and tastes and household items are

similarly

likely to be safe and effective.

In contrast

, a shop with completely different

products

, many of which may have been produced locally, complicates the decision-making process for shoppers.

Nonetheless

, there is

also

the risk that corporations will become powerful monopolies. The

first

implication of

this

would be that many local shops are likely to go out of business. The local owners of

such

shops will

then

be forced to find less desirable work. Replicated globally,

this

means that profits that were previously directed towards millions of local shop owners are now being funnelled to a select number of companies and their shareholders. As these companies become larger and more powerful, it is easier for them to enter new markets, lower prices to dominate the competition, and

then

establish an unhealthy monopoly. In conclusion, despite the wide range of consistent options available for consumers, the rise of corporate power is damaging generally. It is

therefore

important for individual nations to curb

this

trend when possible.
