Last year we carried out research which discovered that those working in the hospitality industry were working, on average, an additional 28 hours of over-time, across Christmas and New Year.
The Christmas trading period is a key time for all of us in this industry and some great food and fantastic drink is certainly well earned. We hope you have a wonderful time this Christmas with your friends and families but if you do choose to spend your time catching up on precious sleep, we understand!
We would like to take this time to thank you all for your continued support this year, what a year it has been! We kicked off the year supporting #TryJanuary as a way of combating the effects of Dry January which can quickly unwrap all the hard work that goes into Christmas trading. We will happily be doing so again this year so get in touch with your account manager to see how we can help with interesting products and POS support.
But that’s enough work talk, from all of us here at Matthew Clark we wish you a very Merry Christmas to you all and a happy New Year!
