But Why?

But Why?

But Why?

Delayed customer payments create a chain reaction for Kirana store owners. They struggle to restock goods on time, leading to a drop in sales, while still facing pressure to pay their suppliers. As a result, store owners often have to cover supplier payments from their own pockets, adding financial stress until customers settle their dues.
