Life above the shop
Article Abstract:
Successful local shops must be able to provide a service that people cannot obtain elsewhere, according to Fiona Dodd-Noble, who with her husband Antony runs a delicatessen in the small town of Tisbury, England. She cooks fresh food each day, and also sells spices and draft alcohol. They live above their shop, and are prepared to work long hours to meet their customers' needs. Living and working in the same place allows them to easily mix work with their family life.
