LOCKDOWN in the UK continues to force many businesses to close, but it is the small businesses that have ‘suffered the most’.
Wrexham Tech, a web design agency in Wrexham, has recently been helping businesses with free help and advice on how they can grow their online presence.
According to the National Federation of Self Employed & Small Businesses (FSB), small businesses account for three fifths of the employment and around half of turnover in the UK private sector. In a recent study by Nucleus Commercial Finance, they predict that a third of small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) will be forced to permanently close by the end of 2021 if the current lockdown is extended.
