Why is business so important to the country’s economy?
Business and commerce are important to a country’s economy. It is what brings the money in. Because businesses provide both goods and services they drive the local community. And of course employment and opportunities for citizens. A few big businesses or a growing supplier can often transform the fate of local communities.
London has many Business hubs. For instance, some of the most famous ones are in ‘Canary Wharf’ and the ‘Square Mile’. They have a global impact as well as local. Companies create job opportunities because they need a workforce to produce and sell their goods.
