Small firm statistics: a hotel sector focus
Article Abstract:
A statistical overview of the hotel sector showed that the plight of the small firm in the UK hotel industry is critical. However, it is expected that the hotel sector will not be supported by the public sector, since it does not adhere to the properties of high growth firms which are considered the basis for governmental assistance and support. Academics, practitioners and policy-makers are called on to be sensitive to sectoral idiosyncrasies.
