Business News of Tuesday, 26 November 2019Source: ghananewsagency.orgTraders anticipate higher sales ahead of ChristmasFile photoWith barely four weeks to the Christmas festivities, traders in the Central Business District of Accra, on Monday said they expect sales to pick up around ‘pay day’ from the current slow start. Christmas, which commemorates the birth of Christ Jesus more than 2000 years ago, is one of the major events on the Christian calendar. “Last year, it wasn’t very encouraging around this time but the December sales were significant in the end,” she said. The traders say they did not anticipate the increment in the prices of their goods because the cedi had remained relatively stable. However, the high demand for foreign currency to foot imported goods for the season sometimes lead to price changes.
