Retailing in Dominican Republic

The presidential elections that took place on May 20 had a slowing effect on consumption during the second quarter of 2012. Sales, however, are expected to pick up during the second half of the year due to the fact that the ruling party will stay on, providing a certain political stability for the next four years as an optimal landscape for sustained growth, in spite of the global financial crisis.
