We cant predict. better to take insurance for small shops also
Home appliances shop may face much loss.
As a part of restarting business, they can seek MLA's help and sell remaining cloths as clearance sale
Really sad. They may started with loan. In future also remaining dress they may forced to sell for low price (even those dresses are not damaged) to attract people. People may hesitate to buy from there
Smal shop people may not do insurance for their shop.
Insurance may help them to restart their business
