Including mine to a degree.

I order fabrics and trims all around the world for various commissions, depending on what the client wants.

Thankfully, I am not in need of home appliances. I will need to get as new phone however and are prepared to pay double what I paid for my current Samsung phone. Most clothes, I can make. Other businesses will not be so lucky.
