WASHINGTON — The price of meat and gasoline is rising, and for Antonio Hernandez, owner of Tacos El Tony, the cost to run his business is taking a bite out of his personal savings.
“We’ve had to buy less for ourselves,” said the 40-year-old Modesto resident, speaking in Spanish.
Hernandez said he’s no longer buying personal items for his family like he used to. They’ve had to buy less for themselves and save their money. They aren’t sure how much longer they’ll need to dip into their personal savings to fund their business.
