**Tijuana Businesses Anticipate a 45% Sales Boost During “El Buen Fin”**
This year, Tijuana’s retail sector is gearing up for a promising “El Buen Fin,” with expectations for a 45% increase in sales, according to Julián Palombo Saucedo, the president of the local Chamber of Commerce, Services, and Tourism (Canaco Servytur). The annual nationwide shopping event will take place from Friday, November 15 to Monday, November 18.
Palombo Saucedo shared that local businesses have been forming partnerships and making preparations to offer attractive discounts and incentives to draw in customers. He emphasized the importance of genuine pricing and called on business owners to ensure their discounts are authentic and not misleading. “Let’s be ethical in our marketing and transparent with our pricing,” he urged.
Despite the optimistic outlook for “El Buen Fin,” it’s worth noting that Canaco statistics reveal that 50% of new businesses close within the first two years. This reality underscores the necessity for strategic planning and genuine consumer engagement during such sales events.
In other developments, the Tijuana business community is also dealing with challenges like issues with municipal inspectors and the impact of import regulations on used cars. They have urged authorities, including Mexico City’s head of government, Claudia Sheinbaum, to expedite the renewal of import decrees, which are crucial for local businesses involved in these sectors.
