A strong start to the 92nd HOTREC General Assembly in Cork today.
In partnership with the Irish Hotels Federation, the Restaurants Association of Ireland is proud to welcome hospitality leaders from over 30 European countries.
@PresidentRAI Seán Collender and CEO of the Restaurants Association of Ireland and @HOTREC_EUROPE Treasurer @adriancummins addressed delegates as 47 associations from across Europe come together at a pivotal moment for the sector.
With 99.6% of businesses operating as SMEs in Ireland, the industry continues to face significant pressure from rising energy costs due to wider global uncertainty.
Bringing European colleagues together in Cork comes at an important time, as businesses across the continent navigate increasing input costs and challenges, ahead of Ireland’s EU Presidency this July #HotrecGACork
