Vehicles would queue up outside Nasser Road to transport the materials to the campaign trail.
However, the measures put in place by the government to curb the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic since March have disrupted these businesses.
With the 2021 campaigns devoid of mass rallies, processions, and public gatherings, the printing business has suffered losses.
The loss of jobs and collapse of businesses occasioned by the lockdown, means diminished income and thus little money for political advertising on the campaign.
