However, our members are confident that sales and profits can be maintained with 79 percent of surveyed firms expecting profits to be the same or improve this year,” said Rodney Walker, CEO of SSA-UK. “The effect of the VAT increase has yet to be fully measured, but with average occupancy only falling 2 percent over the year, members are confident of reversing this over the coming year."
