The pandemic has claimed the lives of seven million, affecting the local economy. Anti-COVID-19 policies promote entrepreneurship as a central axis of the economic agenda. In the case of tourism, micro-financing policies encourage the local economy through the promotion of magical towns. The gastronomy trade has benefited from fiscal and monetary incentives.

A predictive model was contrasted in which resource optimization determined product innovation. In relation to the state of knowledge, the scope and limits of the study were discussed.
