The weak forint stimulates shopping tourism

As the result of the weak forint shopping tourism to Hungary accelerated again in the settlements near the border. Shopping tourists come to Hungary mainly from Slovakia, while near the Austrian border the increase in traffic is less noticeable – MTI wrote.

In the near border settlements of Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County and even in Miskolc, the situation is practically similar than a year ago was. More and more people come from Slovakia to spend their euros. Because the forint is weak and fuel is significantly cheaper than on other side of the border. (MTI)
