They face obstacles such as disrupted supply chains, financial constraints, and the constant threat of conflict. Many have adapted by pivoting their business models, seeking new markets, and leveraging digital platforms to reach customers. Their efforts not only sustain their livelihoods but also contribute significantly to the country’s economy during these unstable times.
