The correct answer is Super market

Key Points

  •  Discount store: A retail establishment known as a discount store or discount shop which sells goods for less than the going rate in the market.
    • Considering that they provide a large variety of products, some discount stores are comparable to department stores; in fact, some are referred to as discount department stores.
    • "Category killers" are discount retailers that focus on a particular selection of products inside a retail category.

 

  • Super market: A supermarket is a self-service store with a vast selection of foods, drinks and household items arranged on shelves and in sections.
    • This type of store is bigger and has a wider variety than older grocery stores, but it is narrower and offers a lower selection of goods than a hypermarket.
    • For Example: D Mart.

  • Convenience store: A corner or convenience store is a small retail establishment that sells a variety of necessities like groceries, confections, soft drinks, tobacco, newspapers etc.
    • These stores typically operate near a busy commercial area or a popular residential neighbourhood.
    • For Example: Reliance Fresh.

  • Catalogue store: A retail business establishment is referred to as a "Catalogue Store" if it accepts orders for the purchase of goods that are included in a catalogue that it offers and sells part or all of the items featured in the catalogue.
    • Customers choose the products from printed catalogues in the store and fill out an order form, unlike a self-serve retail establishment where the majority of the items are displayed.

 

Hence, the correct answer is Super market.
