The economy of a country creates an environment and mentality of the people, whether to spend or not. If the economy is good and
people have jobs and sources of income, then they would be able to spend.
They encourage customers to spend their money, instead of holding on to it and buying what they need. Such an economic mindset
grows economic activities.
Legal Factors Affecting Retail Industry
• A retail store operates within the legal environment of a country ,therefore, it has to follow the principal, local labour laws, excise and
taxation regulation, and other business laws.
• When a brand plans to go globally, the rules and regulations become a bit complicated. It’s because every country has different copyrights, trade
and tariff laws.
• If a business decides not to follow the local rules and regulations of certain or many countries, then it would result in ban, restrictions, bankruptcy
or foreclosure of the business. Therefore, the business must obey a country’s laws.
