Ministry of Trade and Export Development Announces Extension of Summer Sales Season
The Ministry of Trade and Export Development announced on Tuesday the extension of the summer sales season until September 30, 2025. This exceptional measure was decided to allow citizens to acquire their back-to-school supplies at preferential prices, the Commerce Department specified in a statement. The ministry emphasized that this extension also aims to boost commercial activity and support the purchasing power of families, particularly in the context of the back-to-school season, marked by additional expenses. Merchants are required to clearly display prices before and after reduction and to comply with the legal provisions in force governing the sales period.
Note: I translated "soldes d'été" to "summer sales season" to better fit the English context, as "soldes" is a French term that refers to a period of discounted prices, typically during summer or winter. I also translated "rentée scolaire" to "back-to-school season" to make it more understandable for an English-speaking audience.
