As to the question behind the name, “Black Friday”, Wikipedia writes, “Many retailers report some of their highest profits on Black Friday. The black portion of the name, “Black Friday” relates to businesses recording their losses in red ink and gains in black. This tradition lives on in modern accounting software, hence the name.”

Regarding this grand event, Kaymu posts, “For the first time ever, you will be able to join in the madness and craze of Black Friday in Nepal. Prepare yourself for the biggest sale of the year. 25th November, 2016 is the date for this amazing event and you surely do not want to miss out on the thousands of craziest Black Friday deals in Nepal!”
