Sarah Wafeeq, owner of Blueberry Sweet, a celebration supplies and homemade food shop in Jenin, has restarted her business from scratch following significant losses, the Palestine News Network reported. Wafeeq launched the venture during the coronavirus pandemic, when demand for home-based enterprises and artisanal goods surged among customers seeking alternatives to commercial products.
The shop specializes in supplies and products for celebrations and holidays, catering to local customers across the West Bank city. Despite the setbacks that forced her to rebuild, Wafeeq has persisted in maintaining her business operations in Jenin's commercial sector.
