Results of the Small Business Economic Trend Survey (April 2026)

The Central Federation of Societies of Commerce and Industry has compiled the results of its survey on business conditions and sales for small businesses (April 2026). The survey shows a significant decline in sales, profitability, and business sentiment indices, with a slight decline in cash flow indices as well. Due to the increasing instability in the Middle East, securing petroleum-related products has become difficult, and procurement costs have risen sharply. The business environment for small enterprises is becoming increasingly severe, with many expressing concerns about their future business continuity.
