The Río Tercero Commercial, Industrial, Services and Agricultural Center (Cecisa) was issued due to the controversy generated in the city’s clothing commercial sector for a clothing fair that will open between Thursday, May 2 and Friday, May 12 with businesses from other cities that will present their offers in that area.
The fair comes from Córdoba, with well-known brands, and will be installed on those days in the Juana Manso hall, located to the west of the city.
The arrival has been questioned by city merchants. They consider that while they are experiencing a complicated situation due to the drop in sales, derived from the adjustment implemented by Javier Milei’s government, a fair that comes from outside will further deepen their crisis.
