Day of the Dead - A potential sales opportunity equal to Halloween

Taking place from October 31 to November 2 (the same time as Halloween), the Day of the Dead festival, also known as Dia de los Muertos, is a festival of the dead rooted in Mexican culture. This holiday is celebrated by the Mexican community - the largest immigrant community in the US with a population of up to 37 million people. They have a liberal consumption culture, do not focus on saving, so they will be a large and extremely potential customer group that sellers should pay attention to.

If you have watched the cartoon Coco, they will imagine a festival of death filled with light and color. Same day of the dead, but Dia De Los Muerto is not a Mexican version of Halloween. If the theme of Halloween is darkness and ghosts, then Dia De Los Muertos is about joy and honoring life. On this day, Mexicans will dress up beautifully and parade, sing, and hold large parties. In that bustling atmosphere, they did not forget to remember and show their love to their lost loved ones.
