Store owners are preparing to close, trying to stay optimistic

In the previous closure, the cry of retailers was heard, but the FOX dividend affair created public distrust of the sector.

Closing on holidays will be a death blow for many of them: "There will be far-reaching consequences, many small chains will collapse"

We will have to close the livelihoods of tens of thousands of families.

"The upcoming closure will have far-reaching consequences for the Israeli fashion market," says Meir Najibi, owner and CEO of the TOGO shoe chain. "The economy has not yet recovered from the previous closure.

"It is precisely during the holidays that were expected to strengthen the sales cycle that we will again have to take out workers to the IDF and close the livelihood of tens of thousands of families.

We confronted Najibi with the fact that even many stores were seen working with masks on the chin, overcrowding and non-observance of procedures.

You are also to blame, they claimed, but he does not agree: "In our network we adhered to the procedures as they were written. Moreover, there were dozens of reviews in stores across the country and we all passed. Those who did not follow the procedures were fined, but now we are all cruelly fined. .

"All the networks met the standards."

SCOOP shoe chain

Roni Insaz, CEO and owner of the Scoop shoe chain, also believes that the closure will bring disaster to business owners. "A closure this time could do enormous damage and cause many small chains to collapse and close their business." He suggests a solution: "The closure should only take place at night, A time when young people go out, hold huge parties, big weddings and more, "and he also does not agree that in stores violate the procedures:" I think and sure that almost all chains met the purple mark and the requirements of the Ministry of Health, because in the end it serves them.

I want to believe it will be one last closure and enough.

And that we will all overcome this crisis and plague, after which we will overcome and unite as only we know.

We hope that 2021 will be much stronger and better for all of us. "

Are malls really not a source of infection?

We disagree on Najibi and Insaz.

The public is running away from responsibility, every community claims the infection is not coming from it, and in the meantime we have crossed the 500 patients per day.

Yes, even many stores (not specific to TOGO and Scoop, it should be noted) did not pay attention to the purple mark.

Books told without masks.

We are all to blame for this situation.

However, both seem to be right.

The closure may be logically correct, but there is nothing sad about a picture of a closed line of stores.

This time the self-employed will receive assistance in advance.

It is highly doubtful that he will approach the sales turnover they may have had during the holidays.
