Rise in Competition  

This is the single biggest benefit of globalization all around the world. With enhanced competition from foreign brands and companies, industries of every nation are compelled to improve their standards and quality and customer satisfaction services. This benefits the customers and the economy as a whole, and raises the standard of living of everybody. This could be viewed as a negative impact by many, but no-one can deny the impact it has had.

Rise in Technology and Know How

As a result, they are better able to handle their primary and secondary industries, and this ultimately affects their tertiary sectors in a positive manner as well.
