The World Cup may have been exciting, but for many businesses, June and July brought financial blues. Restaurants, boutiques, and cafes are reporting a significant drop in sales, with some seeing revenue fall by nearly half.
Diora Boutique and Cafetería Artemisa are among those feeling the pinch. Merchants are working harder, focusing on social media content, and hoping that upcoming holidays like Mother's Day will boost sales.
This slowdown isn't just about the World Cup or vacations. Consumer confidence has decreased, and potential tax reforms and global economic uncertainty are making people more cautious with their spending.
Even macrobiotic stores have noticed a considerable decline. Customers are buying less, opting for cheaper alternatives, or choosing lower-quality products to manage their budgets.
As businesses navigate this challenging period, they're strategizing to stay afloat, hoping for a recovery in the coming months.
