A store owner has told how he made just £13 in a full day and is feeling the strain, as he said people hadn't returned to shopping in his London neighbourhood with the cost of living crisis.
Statistics showed small and medium-sized shops have struggled to bounce back after the Covid crisis, and Mohammed Masi, owner of MNS Bedding Clothing and Accessories in Catford, now bluntly claimed: "There is no business here."
Mohammed said the precinct where his shop is based was previously a thriving retail area. But since Covid, he's been told by people they "don't have money to shop", reported MyLondon.
