Hello Venturer,I don't think the debate on evolution will ever end. I mean, I don't believe my ancestors were apes, but I find the argument fascinating. The theory that adaptation is a necessity for life is profound. It doesn't only apply to biology but to every area of life.Remember Blackberry? I bet you had one or at least wanted one. If not, you most definitely wanted a Java or Symbian phone. These brands were so great back in the day. But today, they're extinct (yikes!). Nobody wants a Blackberry anymore -- we want iPhones now.Life as we know it is evolving. People's lifestyles and ideologies are not the same as they used to be years ago. That means their needs are evolving, and sadly, businesses that no longer meet these needs will die.One of the businesses that got caught by this theory was Mall for Africa. The brand was once one of Africa's top e-commerce platforms. But recently, it shut down operations. This week, we have a story on the brand's failure to evolve and its imminent closure.
