There are numerous that slowly disappeared on the face of the business planet. They started their gradual disappearance during the start of the Global Crises and more when the pandemic attacked humanity killing millions. These businesses or companies that no longer exist in my country are AVON, SARA LEE, and TUPPERWARE. They were so famous in the past, in fact, I was a retailer of AVON products during my college days and the proceeds helped me a lot. I enjoyed having money in my wallet. May I know if they have branches in your country?

I have never heard about any of these names before though, and i doubt if they have a branch here in my country. There is also one eatery i loved so much back then. They just disappeared suddenly.

Avon originated in United States of America so also Sarah Lee but Tupperware company also originated abroad in Switzerland. There are many food supplement originated from Switzerland that no longer exists like the SANDRE INTERNATIONAL.

This is an interesting post. AVON products and Sara Lee used to be quite popular in my location. I have some friends who were AVON agents. I loved Sara Lee's frozen cakes. I bought them from time to time. Wonder the reasons they do not exist anymore.

The simple truth is that whenever a business is no longer meeting the needs of the people there is nothing that is going to help the business to keep being in existence.

I am also wondering. In our city AVON had a very big store and it just disappeared. Retailers purchased products in cash. Perhaps inflation is the cause. Shipment might be too expensive likewise the materials or elements used in the processing too costly.

I think a lot of businesses found it hard to switch to the life that we live now. They could not upgrade and they felt the best thing for them to do was to shut down the business

Yes, that was also in Italy. You have to know that my aunt (born in 1954) worked for AVON when she was a girl. Even today at home we have an object that my aunt gave to my mother, coming from AVON.

Despite this we may think it belongs to the past, we must consider that the future, the advent of Artificial Intelligence, will put something like 300 million of workplaces at risk by 2030. Already this data should be alarming!
What do you think about?

There is nothing I could say except to wait and see how things go with the advent of artificial intelligence. It might be happening in big places like international airports. Robots cannot be bribed in the immigration areas in the world.

Here in Italy often seems to enforce the hypocrisy! Sometimes Italian people complain about the excessive number of immigrants, who, however they perform jobs where the Italians don't want to know anymore! (n) (n)

These all are facts, but due to modern technology and invention of new things some businesses wiped out which used to be the best, as internet cafe and video game business.

There are indeed businesses that disappeared during the pandemic and more this time because of the intervention of Artificial Intelligence. Small businesses feel disgusted about this though.

There are many businesses that no longer exist especially this time when artificial intelligence is present in the face of the world many businesses were shut down. Their sales went down and some of them went bankrupt.

Exactly, my dear friend. You can think that only here in Italy, where the already serious problem of lack of work is unfortunately becoming drastic, it has already been predicted that the application of Artificial Intelligence also in our country will put over 8 million jobs at risk!

Global brands that disappeared is Nokia. From being the number one phone brand, it allowed arrogance get to the brans. The company fell and doesn't exist any longer because it failed to partner and adopt Android on time.

It's fearsome and worrisome the artifical intelligence takes over jobs and works of people who are also skilled and educated. We need to prepare for the drastic change of the business world.

Oh the change is happening so fast with the way things are going. These days people want things that would produce results fast without complains or any from of distractions, hence they go for artificial intelligence.
