Corner - Stores

Australian industry research reported a 34% decrease in the number of corner stores between 2010 and 2012. They attributed this to the rise in the number of petrol stations incorporating convenience stores with expanded food and beverage offerings. Many of these were owned by Coles or Woolworths. An estimated 2725 corner stores remained, with the average annual takings decreasing from $985,000 to $750,000 in the previous two years.
Australian Food News reported in 2012 that the numbers of traditional milk bars in Australia had significantly declined over the past 30 years from an estimated 6000 or more milk bars in the State of Victoria alone in the 1970s. During the 1980s the Victorian government approved Sunday trading for larger grocery stores. This flexibility in opening hours had previously been confined to milk bars and some convenience stores and the relaxation of trading hours had a negative effect on the milk bar businesses.

    Die Komposition gefällt mir außerordentlich gul.
    Einige Elemente, besonders  das Blau des Autos, stören nach meinem Eindruck.die Farbharmonie.
    Mir gefällt es in S/W deshalb fast besser.
    Dein beschreibender Text gefällt mir besonders, denn über Australien weiß ich so gut wie nichts.
