The two years of the Covid-19 pandemic have devastated the hospitality sector which is the third largest private sector employer in the UK. Thousands of businesses have closed, many are the brink of collapse, and countless jobs have lost.
During the last two years, BEF have worked tirelessly to support affected businesses with loans backed by the CBILS and RLS schemes. This ongoing support is now enhanced by The Hospitality Recovery Loan Fund.
Developed by BEF, the Hospitality Recovery Loan Fund delivers additional support to viable hospitality, food, retail and supply chain businesses across Yorkshire, The Humber and Tees Valley that have been affected by Covid-19.
Eligible businesses can access flexible unsecured finance up to 25% of pre-pandemic or current turnover.
