A new survey has revealed a resilient attitude dominates in Scottish businesses, despite economic uncertainty and challenges in attracting and retaining skilled workers.
Asked about their future ambitions, 59% of respondents to the Henderson Loggie Scottish Business Survey have plans to grow their businesses in the year ahead, while 37% are aiming to strengthen their existing levels of activity.
The research was carried out in association with the research team at Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce and included more than 50 businesses from across Aberdeen and Grampian, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Dundee and Angus.
