Douala: economic activities back in full steam

Economic activities which were grounded on Tuesday, January 2, 2024 in the economic capital city Douala, as a result of new year celebrations have regained normal steam this Wednesday January 3. Business persons who opened their shops in Douala on January 2 complained of an unprofitable day. 'Camp Yabassi as you know is a business hub. Today the place is deserted, many shops closed, probably because of the new year celebration. I opened my shop and unable to sell due to no customers. I even regret opening,' Joseph Ezenwa , a business operator at Camp Yabsssi said. Kasalafarms business area in Nkoulouloun was also deserted with shops closed. The atmosphere was not a resting one for Shaba who sells clothes. ' I decided to sell today in order to finish the stock I have. If most people didn't open, it is an opportunity for me.' At Douche municipal Akwa, economic activities were timid. This was the practical reality in other business places in Douala. Source: Cameroon News Agency
