Serrande abbassata e negozi chiusi: la crisi del commercio colpisce Vigevano

Too many shops closed in the city. Vigevano has long been struggling with the problem of business closures in its downtown area. Complaints come not only from shopkeepers, but also from many residents who are forced to wander past blacked-out windows and closed shutters. Yet there are also those who refuse to give up and have decided to open a shop in Piazza Ducale, focusing on a niche product. Over the years, the situation appears to have worsened, partly due to rising rents and general expenses, which have led to increased costs for individual shopkeepers.
