Revised Essay - Band 6.5

It is argued that all stores in towns and cities will close due to the rise of online shopping. I totally disagree with this statement because of the unique experiences physical stores offer and the employment opportunities they create.

To begin with, shopping in physical stores provides a unique experience that online shopping cannot match. When people visit a store directly, they can try on items and inspect them closely before making a purchase. This leads to greater satisfaction compared to online shopping, where such experiences are limited. For example, in Bandung, 65% of young people prefer shopping for clothes at Mall Cimahi because they can see the material and try on clothes to find the right fit.

Furthermore, physical stores contribute significantly to employment and have a positive impact on the economy. Large offline stores require staff to assist customers, creating numerous job opportunities. For example, in developed countries like France, known for its fashion industry, many offline stores hire employees to provide excellent customer service. This employment helps boost the economy, with 45% of citizens in Paris benefiting from jobs in physical stores.

In conclusion, online shopping cannot replace the memorable experiences and career opportunities provided by physical stores. Offline shops can adopt new strategies to attract customers and remain relevant.
