Will fresh supermarkets replace traditional farmers' markets?

No, because they each have their own advantages and disadvantages. Here I will introduce the advantages of several farmers' markets:

Advantage 1: There are many kinds of ingredients.

Many home-cooked dishes are easy to buy in the vegetable market, but can't be found in the supermarket. Supermarkets are bound in the procurement process. Unlike vegetable markets, vendors can buy and sell freely, which can meet the diverse needs of consumers. So this is why strange ingredients that can't be found in most supermarkets can be seen everywhere in the vegetable market.

Advantage 2: Fresh ingredients

The most basic thing to buy food is to look at the freshness of the ingredients. Supermarkets and vegetable markets attach great importance to this point, and supermarkets are also equipped with cold storage for this purpose. However, buying fresh vegetables in the supermarket still depends on luck. Fresh fruits and vegetables that have just been put on the shelves are easily robbed, and most of the rest are damaged and no one patronizes them. In the vegetable market, it is another phenomenon. Vendors carefully take care of their wholesale dishes in the morning, spraying some water from time to time, and customers will tell each other not to take it lightly when choosing. In addition to man-made, the freshness of vegetables themselves will also be lost over time. Vendors will adjust the price of vegetables appropriately to give benefits to consumers, so that consumers can buy the freshest ingredients at the most suitable price.

Advantage 3: low price.

In addition to the freshness of ingredients, the price is also one of the issues that everyone considers. Compared with organic vegetables in supermarkets and local pork, the prices of vegetables in the vegetable market are obviously more attractive, and the stall owner can also get some shallots and garlic.

Advantage 4: temperature, close to the people.

In the past, consumers didn't like going to the vegetable market because they thought the environment was dirty. Compared with the clean and comfortable environment of the supermarket, no one wants to walk around the vegetable market in clean shoes all day. Now, the vegetable market is undergoing an earth-shaking upgrade, and the environmental sanitation has improved. The market is paved with clean floor tiles and scientific lighting, and some markets are also integrated with the design of local culture, which is antique and intriguing. The vegetable market has changed, and people are still the same. Familiar pork shop owners will carefully cut off the fat in lean meat. The enthusiastic food stall owner will tell you which dish is the freshest today and will chat with you in the selected leisure time. This kind of scene is not surprising in the vegetable market. Someone gives you onions and someone chats with you. Suddenly, the vegetable market became warm. In a supermarket, such a scene is unlikely to happen. Meat buyers are all people who queue up to pay for meat. A steak is a steak, cut and weighed, and there is no emotional communication between them.
