Mexico's leading pawn shop announces reopening after a year-long strike

Nacional Monte de Piedad, Mexico's leading pawnshop, has announced the reopening of its branches scheduled for Wednesday, October 7. The decision comes after the institution reached an agreement with its union, successfully putting an end to a strike that had lasted for a year.

The announcement was made in Mexico City on September 30, following months of labor disputes that led to the prolonged closure of the prominent financial and lending institution's facilities across the country. The resolution marks a significant turning point for the organization and its workforce, restoring normal operations for the public relying on its services.
