Manage episode 518788452 series 3391555
Many businesses that limped through the pandemic are now going under.
Insolvency practitioners have been reporting a sharp rise in the number of insolvencies since mid-2022.
Smaller retail, hospitality, construction, transport and manufacturing operators are failing far more now than they were before the pandemic.
Waterstone Insolvency Principal Damien Grant told Kerre Woodham a lot of businesses are subject to economic winds, which are outside of their control.
