Every city has wholesale markets where goods first reach and then supplied to other traders. The retailers and roadside hawkers purchase goods in large quantity from these wholesale traders in town. The city wholesale trader buys these goods in large quantities from the factories and stores them in a godown. This creates a chain of markets.

Wholesalers and retailers are the people between producers and consumers. Wholesaler is the first who buys goods in large quantities and then sells them to the retailers. Retailer is the trader who finally sells them to the consumers. It is this connection of traders which helps goods to reach far away places. Thus, wholesaler is in direct contact with producer while retailer with consumers.

No, I think it is true of shops with expensive products as well. Every person had an equal right to visit any shop in a marketplace, even those selling expensive items. For example, Sujata and Kavita had every right to enter the shop selling readymade branded clothes in 'Anzal Mall'. The security grand looked at them as if he wanted to stop them from entering the shop because they appeared poor. Even if they could not afford to buy any cloth from that shop, they had the right to visit it.

Although it is not compulsory for one to every time go to the market to buy goods. Orders can be placed on phone or through internet for variety of things and goods are delivered at our doorsteps. For instance, there are sales representatives waiting for doctors in clinics and nursing homes, the persons are involved in the selling of goods. Hence, buying and selling can be done through various ways and not necessarily through shops in marketplaces.
There are some markets that we don't recognise because there are goods which are traded but we don't use them directly. It means we don't normally see buying and selling but only the final product like the car in showroom.

Urban areas have markets with many shops mainly known as shopping complexes. Also there are large member of multi-storeyed air-conditioned buildings with shops on different floors, referred as malls. Both branded and non-branded goods are available in these markets. Branded goods are expensive and promoted by advertising claiming better quality. The producers of these brands sell them with the help of shops in big urban markets and special showrooms. Only few people can afford these branded goods.
