Small business owners and merchants unable to maintain operations due to uncontrollable inflation and unreliable power supply

Iranian merchants and small business owners face simultaneous crises of rapidly rising input costs and frequent power cuts that force them to close operations, making it impossible to maintain inventory, serve customers, or generate revenue. Current solutions like price increases alienate customers in an already economically stressed market, while backup power systems are unaffordable. Businesses are collapsing because they cannot operate predictably or profitably.
