The hospitality industry is one of the industries most affected by the corona pandemic.
Recovery just seemed to be close when the next problem comes.
Rostock - Despite a positive summer in most businesses, the hospitality industry in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania has to reckon with difficult months. The expected price increases have already taken place in the past few months, but this additional income has been eaten up by rising energy and personnel costs, said the president of the Dehoga MV association, Lars Schwarz, of the German press agency. This development comes at a time when the problems from the seven-month-long forced closure with ongoing costs have not yet been overcome.
The industry is very worried as there is no end in sight to general inflation.
"We are at the end of the price spiral, it hits us completely." This is seen as the main obstacle to further positive development.
All food price increases would ultimately have to be passed on to customers.
As a further example, Schwarz cited higher costs for crockery and cutlery of currently up to 40 percent.
Since private households are facing similar problems, it is foreseeable that people will go out less often.

At the same time, society is still a long way from being able to describe the corona virus and the pandemic as manageable.
Nevertheless, there are good signs that can be seen, for example, in the increasing bookings for company Christmas parties.
However, this is still not a “safe business”.
Because the landlords would have to give the customer very accommodating cancellation options.
With regard to the access regulations to the restaurant and inns, the operators would be very skeptical of a general 2G regulation.
This means that only those who have had a full vaccination or have recovered from corona disease are admitted.
“We are the hosts.
We are not the ones who shut someone out, ”emphasized Schwarz.
Already today it is to be feared that the guests will be permanently lost, who would have to show a current negative test with the 3G regulation.
