What to Focus On

  • Consumer is the final buyer of goods and services.
  • Consumer product may be used for personal, family, institutional, or business purposes.
  • Consumer behaviour means the buying decision process.
  • Poor quality goods can be hard to identify.
  • Adulteration changes a product by adding or removing substances.
  • High prices may result from several market factors, but some sellers overcharge uninformed buyers.
  • Consumer education and protection help consumers defend themselves in the market.
  • Awareness of rights and responsibilities is essential.
  • Consumer awareness reflects development and progress.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
