November and December are the traditional peak sales seasons in France, yet recent ongoing social unrest has made merchants worried about the future of the shopping season at the end of the year. According to data from the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry, recent protests have caused damage to about 2,400 stores across the country. According to estimates by the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry, previous social unrest has caused merchants to lose more than 1 billion euros. There will also be new demonstrations on the Japanese weekend of October 31 and November 5. In response to subsequent demonstrations, a large number of stores planned to close their doors early to take refuge, which cast a shadow over the sales prospects for the year-end shopping season: Alain Di Crescenzo, Chairman of the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry: “For downtown merchants, November and December accounted for 40% of the year's revenue. There are only 8 weekends left this year, and every weekend the retail industry shuts down, it will lose 1.5 billion euros in revenue.”
