"You can make good money on this." Petru about 4 days of closed shops

"Margins will be high"

The exceptionally long closing period of most stores at the end of December will probably mean even longer than usual queues before Christmas Eve and crowds on December 28.

In a morning conversation on RMF FM, Ryszard Petru emphasized that 4 days without shopping in shopping malls and supermarkets does not mean that trade will stop completely.

I don't want to say that anyone will not have anything to eat, because there are other stores and couriers will fly with food - said the former leader of Nowoczesna. The margins will be high and you will be able to make good money on it, he added.

Petru has long been a supporter of the liberalization of Sunday trading rules. Let's start at least by making Sunday trading possible in tourist destinations, he suggested.

The MPs will deal with Sunday trading

The RMF FM guest also revealed that on Friday, after two years of freezing, the Parliamentary Committee for Economy and Social Policy will deal with a project that would introduce two commercial Sundays a month with a double rate for employees on these days.

The Center's politician recalled that Third Way spent three years leading to the elections with the demand to liberalize Sunday trade. One of the parties to this coalition was the Polish People's Party. Can it now support making changes?

There is no euphoria for them on all trading Sundays. Every second one was fully accepted by the People's Party 3 years ago. I hope they haven't changed in this respect - concluded Petru.
