Rainer Trefelik has warned of the closure of business after the Christmas holidays. For many merchants it would be a ruin.
The president of the federal trade division of the Austrian Chamber of Commerce (WKÖ), Rainer Trefelik, warns of the closing of shops after the Christmas holidays. “Trading is safe. We are not aware of any instance where a group has taken their starting point in trading. What some call the Christmas holidays would be the ruin for many traders,” Trefelik said in a broadcast on Wednesday. at night.
Rendi-Wagner for “Christmas break”
Trefelik is reacting to the impulse of SPÖ leader Pamela Rendi-Wagner to keep the shop closed again over the Christmas holidays if necessary. For Rendi-Wagner, it would be appropriate to close the exchange between the New Year and January 6, if the number of new infections per day from the last 2,700 of the weekend does not drop to 1,000.
The craft is also prepared for larger meetings with its own concepts. Precautions range from disinfectant dispensers in customer areas to distance rules and regular Covid training courses for employees.
Also, failure in the aftermath of the Christmas holidays would be particularly painful. “The days after Christmas are traditionally particularly strong and even come close to Christmas Saturdays in terms of sales. This year we need these days to at least offset the previous drop in sales,” concluded Trefelik.
