Very interesting in the specific series of reports is the different picture presented by each branch in the Black Friday period. More specifically: Home items have been particularly visited since the beginning of the month culminating on Sunday of Black Friday week rather than Friday. Technology shows a large increase after the first 10 days of the month until its end. Pharmacy appears not to be particularly affected by Black Friday commercialism. In all other industries, the big peak seems to be becoming the Black Friday week. Cyber Monday, on the other hand, seems to retain its potential only in the fashion and cosmetic industries. Finally, it is interesting to note the fact that there is a presence in the words of new trends concerning ways of sending and delivering, as well as international electronic commerce platforms.
