Some speciality shops are now in danger of disappearing. Here are some examples. The butcher shop
Butcher shops sell all kinds of meat. They usually employ people who are trained in the meat industry.
They know how to cut the meat the right way, and they often advise customers on the different types
of meat.
However, it is hard nowadays to find a traditional butcher shop. More people are buying meat from
large supermarkets because it is more convenient, and the price is lower.
The bookshop
Bookshops are becoming quite rare these days. Years ago, it was easy to find bookshops in any town
or city. Then, larger bookshop chains gradually took over and the smaller shops died out. Two
examples of large bookshop chains are Waterstones in the UK and the Barnes & Noble in the USA.
But now, even the large bookshop chains are facing difficulty because more people are buying books
from Amazon as well as digital books.
