CNC: World Cup anticipated to generate BRL 864.49 million for bars and eating places

If confirmed, the amount will represent an increase of 8.3% in relation to the world championship held in Russia in 2018, already discounting the inflation of the period

THE soccer World Cupwhich starts on the 20th, should inject BRL 864.49 million into the billing of Brazilian bars and restaurants, according to estimates by the National Confederation of Trade in Goods, Services and Tourism (CNC).

If confirmed, the amount will represent a increase of 8.3% in relation to the world championship held in Russia, in 2018, already discounting the inflation of the period. In relation to the World Cup held in Brazil, in 2014, the expected revenue is still 2.6% lower.

As a result of the increased movement, the sector should open 7,700 temporary jobs, calculated economist Fabio Bentes, responsible for the CNC study. He estimates the average employee hiring salary to be BRL 1.5 thousand🇧🇷 In the editions of the world championships in 2014 and 2018, the average admission salaries were R$920 and R$1,200, respectively.

Vacancies for waiters and assistants should account for the majority of temporary opportunities, equivalent to 23.4% of new forecast jobs. Another 15.6% of the posts would be for cooks and 15% for cafeteria attendants.

According to the CNC, the billing of bars and restaurants usually grows 2.52% in the months of the World Cup.

“In addition, the fact that the championship will be played during the payment period of the first installment of the 13th salary favors the expansion of expenses this year”, pointed out the study.
