Hardest Hit
The Hospitality Industry has sadly been one of that hardest hit industries during the Corona Virus Pandemic. With a record 6000+ Loss to licensed premises last year alone. This is Triple the numbers from 2019. Due to the restrictions put in place by the government, licensed premises and sociable businesses such as cafes and restaurants all had to close.
The Great Reopening
With great anticipation, the Hospitality Industry, after eagerly waiting for over a year, can finally re-open form as early as 17th May. This follows “outdoor only” hospitality venues which are allowed to open from the 12th April.
The governments ‘Roadmap out of lockdown’ can simply not come soon enough for businesses hanging on by a thread in the hospitality sector and who really need to open their doors to the public if they are to survive, as a business.
This makes the hospitality sector the very last sector be allowed to trade coming out of our 3rd national lockdown.
Making Plans
Many businesses are already underway making plans and preparations, even before their doors have swung open to the public.
This includes social distance strategies implemented within their premises, adequate provisions for sanitisation and following every rule and regulation in order to ensure their expected opening date goes without a hitch!
