A business is an organization or enterprising entity engaged in commercial, industrial or professional activities with the goal of earning a profit. It can be owned by individuals, groups or public companies and is considered a legal entity. A business can be for-profit, not-for-profit or a charitable organization and can be organized as a sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, or cooperative. The types of services and products provided by businesses vary widely and include manufacturing, marketing, importing, transportation, distribution, merchandising, retailing, banking, insurance, finance, accounting, and consulting.

The importance of business can be judged by the fact that it is the backbone of a country’s economy and provides jobs to people all over the world. It contributes to the development of a country by enhancing its infrastructure such as roads and transport systems. It also facilitates the proper and full utilization of a country’s resources and makes it possible to transfer goods from one place to another.
