During the holidays, the region, accustomed to foreign tourism, was able to count on the mobilization of French visitors. A mobilization that has reduced the estimated drop in attendance before the season.

Returning to normal activity after COVID-19

Bordeaux companies are still gradually resuming their activity, but have to adapt. Different schedules, but also equipment now integrated into the operation of shops. The need to equip themselves to protect customers and employees also entails expenses for businesses. But after a rather positive summer season, the professionals intend to continue on this path, and to limit the impact of COVID-19 on their activity. For them, it is necessary to be able to work effectively and to continue to sell goods and services. Thus, recruitment, or the transformation of the business, allows to relaunch on a good basis. For some trades, such as catering, recovery is difficult. Arrangement of the restaurant by reducing the number of cutlery, training of staff in sanitary gestures to adopt… These are all factors that make the economic future of this sector uncertain.

Nevertheless, companies intend to continue their business, and look to the future. By recruiting, they can support local employment while reviving their business. An engaging decision, which shows a real desire to look to the future, and to turn the page COVID-19. However, the latter remains present, and it is necessary to adapt to stay in business.
