香港零售管理协会大型游行蔓延各区会员生意料录双位数跌幅
香港零售管理协会就近日大型游行对零售业影响回应称,视乎不同的零售类别表现,大部分会员公司表示6月及7月第一个星期的营业额平均录得单位数至双位数跌幅。
该会称,7月及8月是零售业传统的暑假销售旺季,但近日大型游行活动在各区蔓延,会员预计生意将大受影响,并会出现双位数跌幅。若情况持续,协会修订2019全年整体销售额的预测为双位数负增长。
协会表示,大型游行活动导致个别店铺暂停营业,不单公司受压,对店铺员工的收入亦有影响。
协会呼吁雇主与雇员应保持紧密沟通,面对特殊情况时,应以雇员安全为最重要考虑因素。
该会表示,业界担心事件会打击本港作为安全城市、美食之都、及购物天堂的国际形象。大型游行对市民生活及营商环境有所影响,协会呼吁政府早日和平解决问题,使社会秩序重回正轨。
