Many entrepreneurs in Antwerp have recently had good business due to the "invasion" of day-trippers from the Netherlands. The Belgian newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws (HLN) reported that many retailers talked about 20 to 30 percent more turnover than expected. The Belgian newspaper tried to map out to what extent local shops and catering establishments have benefited financially from the influx of Dutch people. Due to the lockdown, many people from the Netherlands went shopping or dining in Antwerp, which resulted in extra turnover for local entrepreneurs, according to HLN.
