There are companies that hate time change system because of various reasons such as employees coming late to work. But there are also companies and businesses that like daylight saving time change system:
Sporting good: More daylight means more playtime. Sporting goods stores thrive when customers can stay out late, using those cleats and racquets.
Convenient stores: They are a winner too. When customers are active in the evenings — out and about, picnicking, boating or just knocking back a six-pack, instead of rushing home to get out of the cold — convenience stores cash in.
Candy business: The candy industry is widely thought to have lobbied for the 2005 extension that pushed daylight saving time into November. The National Confectioners Association says that’s not so, but it benefits from an extra hour of trick-or-treating all the same.
