Slamet claims he brought around 300 pieces of bread to sell in the\nMonas area. Unexpectedly, all his goods were sold out in just two\nhours.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese 300 pieces are already sold out. From 8 a.m. earlier, it\u2019s\nbeen about two hours until 10 a.m.,\u201d said Slamet when met at Monas,\nCentral Jakarta, on Friday (1\/5\/2026).<\/p>\n
According to Slamet, crowded moments like May Day are indeed\nopportunities for traders to reap profits. He usually sells in busy\nlocations on weekends or during major events.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf there\u2019s no event, I sell at markets, bus stops, or stations. But\nif there\u2019s an event like this, I definitely come here, it\u2019s crowded,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n
He mentioned that the presence of thousands of workers filling Monas\nmade traders\u2019 goods sell quickly. He even assessed that moments like\nthis are very helpful for the economy of small traders.<\/p>\n
\u201cWow, it\u2019s very blessed for traders. Especially those who rarely come\nhere, they all come (the traders). It\u2019s indeed very beneficial,\u201d he\nstated.<\/p>\n
The bread sold by Slamet is homemade. He is assisted by his nephew\nwho produces the bread with banana filling, honey spread, and cheese\nsprinkle.<\/p>\n
\u201cHomemade, my nephew makes it at home. The filling is banana, the\noutside is spread with honey, sprinkled with cheese, then baked,\u201d he\nexplained.<\/p>\n
Although raw material prices have increased, Slamet still maintains\nthe selling price of Rp 5,000 for three pieces. He copes by reducing the\nsize to keep it affordable for buyers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe materials have risen by about 30 percent. So the size is made a\nbit smaller. If the price is lowered, it\u2019s hard to give change, so it\nremains Rp 5,000 for three,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
In a day, Slamet can earn a net profit of up to Rp 300,000. He\nusually starts selling from midnight, targeting markets to stations\nbefore finally selling in crowded locations.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf in a day it can reach Rp 300,000 net. I start from 12 midnight,\ngo around first, then in the morning to the station,\u201d he said.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/may-day-blessing-bread-sellers-goods-sell-out-in-2-hours-at-monas-1777621993", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
