What kind of Business Activities Area have you visited? Briefly introduce it.

Located in the heart of Badarganj Upazila of Rangpur District, Badarganj Vegetable Market is known as a very important and vibrant center of the agricultural economy of North Bengal. Every day before dawn, this market turns into a huge activity where thousands of farmers gather with fresh vegetables grown in their own fields. As this town on the banks of the Yamuneshwari River is mainly agricultural, the fertility of the soil here plays an important role in the production of various types of seasonal vegetables throughout the year. The incessant movement of vans, rickshaws and trucks in the market's narrow lanes proves that it not only caters to local demand but also serves as a major hub for supplying vegetables to various parts of the country, including the capital Dhaka and the port city of Chittagong.

How were the services and products quality both inside and outside? (With pictures + prices, videos)

Several fundamental differences can be observed in the quality of products and services offered inside and outside the Badarganj vegetable market, which highlight the commercial dynamics of this market. The inner part of the market is mainly dominated by wholesale markets where vegetables are available in bagged form directly from the farmers' fields. The main feature of the produce here is its freshness as fresh vegetables are brought here from the local villages before dawn every day. The quality of sales service in the markets is largely dependent on speed and volume where large wholesalers close the bargain quickly and leave with truckloads of products.

Although the interior environment is a bit crowded and muddy, it is very affordable and reliable in terms of product quality and wholesale price.On the other hand, the outer part of the market or the periphery area mainly has the presence of retailers and small shopkeepers. The quality of the products here is as fresh as the inside, but the vendors keep the products very neatly arranged so that common buyers are easily attracted. The quality of service is slightly different in the outdoor area as the sellers here talk to the customers on a personal level and offer a choice of products which is not usually possible in wholesale shops. Apart from this, transport arrangements and cargo loading outside the market-Availability of vans and rickshaws for unloading further facilitates the quality of service.

A full 24-hour experience at the Badarganj vegetable market in Rangpur district begins long before the end of the night when the entire town is in a deep sleep. Vans and rickshaws laden with fresh vegetables from the villages across the Yamuneshwari river started pouring in from farmers towards the market after 3 pm, and long queues formed in front of the stalls in the dark. Before the light of dawn, the preliminary bargaining is conducted by hurricane or torch light where wholesale buyers check the quality of chillies, bitter gourds or potals by filling baskets. The market is at its peak from 5 am to 9 am, when all around you can see the noise of people, the shouts of shopkeepers and porters with heavy sacks.

Around noon the market picture changes a bit as the wholesale trade slows down and the big trucks start loading up and leaving for Dhaka or Chittagong. At this time, the permanent shops of the market are crowded with daily essential food products including rice, dal, oil and local householders flock to fulfill their daily market. Amidst the dust and busyness of the market in the midday sun, the aroma of fried singara, piyaju and hot jillapi wafts from the small hotels nearby, which helps to relieve the fatigue of the buyers and sellers. The market comes alive again in the afternoon when people returning from office or work pick up fresh vegetables from the retail shops for the evening cooking. Bananas arranged in small fruit shops at the market junctions in the evening light,A display of guavas or seasonal fruits attracts shoppers and the smoke from the tea vendors' kettles creates a social atmosphere.
