A shop is a business that offers goods or services for sale to customers. The shop may specialize in a particular type of product or service, or offer a wide range of options. Customers visit the shop to purchase what they need or want, and the shop provides a convenient and accessible location for them to do so. The shop purchases or produces inventory, displays products, interacts with customers to process sales and provide customer service, accepts payment, manages day-to-day operations, and strives to provide a positive customer experience. The specific details of how a shop operates will depend on the type of shop and the products or services offered.
