Question

Why do perishable goods like fresh bread and vegetables usually have a small, local market?

Options

• They are very cheap to transport

• They never get spoilt.

• They can be stored for many years

Answer 1

They get spoiled quickly and cannot be sent far

Explanation:

Perishable goods go bad quickly, so they are normally sold only in nearby areas and cannot have a wide market.
