Is the Tourism Industry Recession-Proof?
Manage episode 335305239 series 3371861
The pandemic has caused businesses to slow down, relapse, and eventually, not thrive. The tourism industry has affected operators and business owners including the guys of Tourism Titans. As a result, the recession made businesses halt and stop.
In this episode, the guys talked about their lives and their businesses pre-pandemic and post-pandemic - how their business was and their consistent income stream from tourists, how the tourism industry is coping with the cause and effect of the lockdowns, how other businesses in the same field also thrive in a new perspective and if the industry is indeed recession-proof.
