Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

THE supply of shops is one of the major activities of the road transport industry. A trend in the food trade during the past few years has been a reduction in the number of premises engaged in this business, although aggregate turnover has risen. This is because many small traders have closed down.

There are, however, more off-licences, and this may be explained by the greater consumption of drink at home, rather than in public houses, because of television. The 1957 Distribution Census gives the turnover of food shops and off-licences as 0.6m., representing goods all of which would have been distributed by vehicles typified on this page.
