Scotland's boozers are predicted to be 'exceptionally busy' this festive season as punters gather for the World Cup and Christmas parties.
Leading Scottish hospitality wholesaler Dunns Food and Drinks are expecting the “busiest festive season ever” as people across the country get ready to celebrate their first restriction-free Christmas in three years. From November 20, football fans are expected to flock to pubs, bars and restaurants in their thousands as the World Cup begins in Qatar.
The increase in footfall is predicted to create a much-needed sales boom for Scotland’s hospitality industry - which has been subjected to harsh Covid restrictions and financial uncertainty over the past few years.
