I also dont see why this shop is a target. Are all small business in this area treated like this?

Exactly, stores with imported snacks from the US have some crazy prices - cans of soft drinks that you can't get in the UK for £2.50 - £3 a can, etc... it's pretty standard.
When I was in Portugal last year, the convenience store had cans of Irn Bru for 3 euros each. And they were in the Alcohol section
