Veneto has the highest northern vulnerability
Compared to all the main northern regions, Veneto presents a higher level of vulnerability; this situation is due to its strong tourist vocation and to the crisis registered, in particular, in the leather and textile/clothing sectors.
More generally, ISTAT reports, the fragility of a territory is ascribable both to the degree of diffusion of the sectors most affected by the crisis and to the level of specialization of the local economy in these activities.

Textiles, clothing and leather processing in crisis
In particular, textiles, clothing and leather processing are suffering more than others, sectors that have been severely tested in the last year by the strong contraction recorded by domestic and international demand.
Serious difficulties also for tourism and leisure
Equally dramatic is the situation of the sectors that revolve around tourism (hotels, tour operators, travel agencies, local public transport, etc.), retail, hawkers, bars and restaurants, cultural activities (museums, cinemas and theaters), sports (swimming pools, gyms) and those linked to leisure (amusement parks, travelling shows, discos, etc.), which more than others have suffered the negative effects of the closure and physical separation measures imposed by the Government.
