Makkah: Makkah continues to maintain its economic and commercial momentum following the conclusion of this year's Hajj season and pilgrims' departure, benefiting from an integrated operational system and advanced infrastructure that have contributed to sustaining economic and service activity throughout the year rather than limiting it to major seasons only.

According to Saudi Press Agency, the continued commercial activity is evident across various economic sectors in Makkah. Commercial markets, shopping centers, retail stores, restaurants, and hotels maintain stable activity that aligns with the needs of residents, Umrah performers, and visitors, following an exceptional period of intensive operations during the Hajj season, which is considered one of the region's largest economic seasons.

The central markets surrounding the Grand Mosque experienced active purchasing activity during the Hajj season, driven by pilgrims seeking souvenirs, local products, and personal necessities. These markets continue their commercial operations after the season, benefiting from the ongoing flow of Umrah performers and visitors, while reorganizing operations and preparing for upcoming seasons.

Various economic and service sectors in Makkah continue to perform efficiently and steadily after the Hajj season, reinforcing the sustainability of economic activity and supporting development objectives and the quality of services provided to visitors to Makkah throughout the year.
