What are the biggest challenges and issues your business is facing in 2024? Have your say with our national Business Impact Survey.
The Scottish Licensed Trade Association is inviting all licensees to take part in our Business Impact Survey on Winter Season trading and the challenges that operators face in 2024.
The outlook for the Licensed Hospitality Trade remains extremely challenging with continuing financial pressures on the sector, chronic staff shortages and high energy prices. Add into the mix some of the other challenges to overcome with issues such as the Deposit Return Scheme, back in the limelight in 2024; Alcohol Marketing and Promotions Restrictions on the horizon; the archaic Commercial Rating system used to assess licensed premises, which the Scottish Government is now committed to review; Tourism Taxation and VAT and 2024 will no doubt be just as challenging as the last few years have been.
Your responses will provide us with key up to date information that we can use to continue to push for Government action and support for Scotland’s Licensed Hospitality Trade.
The SLTA Business Impact Survey is now open and we encourage all licensees to participate.
It will take just a couple of minutes of your time so please get involved by clicking here. Please do not underestimate the value of your contribution and all replies are anonymous.
