The Hospitality sector saw year-on-year sales growth of 8.8% in 2023. But when you take into consideration the impact of cost increases, the real position was much less positive. The pressure is on for hospitality business owners and managers to make Christmas 2024 the best ever. It is crucial that businesses start planning earlier than ever which is why Christmas Makers have teamed up with local firms Wagada Digital and 10 Yetis to put together this insightful FREE seminar on Thursday 11th July at 3pm, exclusively for hospitality owners and managers. At the end of the Seminar you are invited by Christmas Makers to stay for what is quite possibly the earliest Christmas drink!
