Some people feel that manufacturers and supermarkets have the responsibility to reduce the amount of packaging of goods. Others argue that customers should avoid buying goods with a lot of packaging. discuss both views and give your opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience

The packaging of
goods
is becoming debatable. In recent times, there is the perception of people that both manufacturers and supermarkets are in the proper place of decreasing the cost of
goods
packaging
while
some are of the opinion that
consumers
should purchase
goods
with lesser packaging.
This
essay will analyse both views and my opinions will be given with reasons in the forthcoming paragraphs.
To begin
with, producers of
goods
as well as
supermarkets should put the interest of the
consumers
their priority by reducing the cost of packaging their
goods
, because,
consumers
will make or bring down the efforts of the producers in the sense that the patronage of the consumer of
goods
will determine whether the
goods
will continue to be in an existence or not.
For instance
, the production of bathing soap which ,
although
effective, has expensive packaging thereby reducing its patronage by the populace will definitely affect the producers because the marketing will be slow. In my opinion,
goods
should be packaged well in order to increase their shelf life and
then
improve their uniqueness,
on the other hand
, Having the interest of the customers should not be underrated.
However
, cutting one's coat
according to
one's pocket is important, people should purchase the
goods
which they can afford in packaging because, being contented with what you have is important as not everyone can afford expensive things, going for lesser packaging will be safe them of stress and prevent unnecessary pressure that some
goods
that have better packaging. In my own perspective,
goods
the amount of packaging of
goods
should be reduced so as to increase patronage by the customers thereby enhancing productivity.
For example
, I went to the market to get some bananas at the rate of 500 nairas, the same quantity of bananas would be sold at the rate of 1000 naira in a supermarket called ShopRite just because of packaging, I saved money and unnecessary pressure by going for what I can afford. In conclusion, both the supermarkets and the manufacturers should make the interest of their
consumers
their priority in order to improve productivity and to enable them to stay in business,
