Due to Economic Crisis Open Business in Zaragoza has been Reduced
The crisis is taking its toll on self-employment. People without work, tired of searching were favored at the beginning of the crisis to try his luck with a shop or a bar, now think twice before embarking on the adventure of being their own employers.
Evidenced by the fact that from January to August 2010 there have been only 13 starts business, while up to the same month last year was 40, representing 32% less, according to the Chamber of Commerce of Saragossa.
A decline that qualifies Elena Bathrobe, Technical Service Entrepreneurship and Business Advisory of the Chamber of Saragossa, considering that summer around the openings can still pick up as some prefer to wait until that date to raise the shade. “The consultations we have had more or less the same. 400 until August this year and last year 469. Of these we have done feasibility study 90 proposals,” he says.
What I have noticed is the drop in starts, as in years before the crisis came to be in the same period, the first seven months of the year, 50 openings in 2008 and 83 in 2007. “The average period since I think until the business is open long enough, especially by funding problems having to journey by banks to get credit,” said Bathrobe. “Still, people who open a local trade to make a roster are doing well.
They know where they get and have to adjust much spending.” Bathrobe explains that he has changed the profile of the entrepreneur: “A few years had professionals with the project almost completed. Now come, especially immigrants who are unemployed and self-employment in their only alternative.”
