TextLanguage: English Publication details: [South Africa]: Phaseup Connect, 2021. Description: 150 pages: illustrations; 20 cmISBN: 9781899897186DDC classification: 338.9 RAPH Summary: Why is it possible that many foreign brands that enter our township economy outsell many of our prominent locally produced brands? Could it be quality? If so, why are we witnessing the triumph of shopping complexes, such as Small Street and China Malls, where there is high consumption of low quality foreign-produced brands? It can be a difficult question to simply give your opinion right away but worry not. In this book, the authors show the economic trends that often open doors to foreign producers and leave out township producers in the township economy. For example, the Soweto community brings the money circulating on the Mall's premises; however, the money does not remain in the Soweto region for the benefit of the Soweto community. Their research findings show the number of foreign brands that used to be unpopular or unknown that have gained their introductory phase from the informal market (Township Spazashops) and have continuously evolved to brands that we now see and consume in the formal retail setting. Based on these findings, the authors believe there is a need for a Township startup Movement which will see our producers thrive and will create employment opportunities. Enjoy this reading and pay attention to the detailed secrets that often leave this economy impoverished If we cannot sell to ourselves, then whoever gets the opportunity to sell to us will never represent us,but they will represent themselves. -- Publisher's description.
