What are you hearing about Hospitality & the Economy

I wanted to take this opportunity to share some of the information I am hearing these days and hopefully get some input into what you are hearing.

I have been talking to people in hotels, restaurants and in tourism and here are some of the things I have been hearing:

From the hotel sector:
January was good, February was the worst month ever but March, April, May and beyond are looking great.

From the restaurant sector:
The guys on Bay St. (Toronto) are starting to spend again. They are coming in and ordering Dom instead of the cheap stuff.

There has been a change in attitude, people are just acting different.

From the Tourism sector:
The language has changed. People have started talking about business building rather than surviving the recession.

In my particular case, business has been very interesting. If you check my job postings you will see that I have recently picked up 2 director positions and both are positions that didn’t exist prior to last year or if they did may have been cut due to the economy.

I welcome all of you to leave a comment and let all of your fellow hospitality people know what you are experiencing or hearing. It’s easy to do, just click under the Blog Title where it says “No Comments” or “# of Comments” and write what you want to say.

Let’s start a conversation and an exchange of information so all of us can benefit.
