Hospitality businesses in Northern Ireland are struggling to break-even amid the cost of living crisis, an industry body has warned.
Colin Neill, Chief Executive of Hospitality Ulster, said the industry was hit by increasing supply and labour costs as it attempted to recover from the pandemic. He warned the situation may worsen throughout the summer and into winter months.
The increased cost of living is evident for both business owners and customers which makes keeping outlets afloat a more difficult task.
