I may be speaking to one of the same people as Francis was chatting to but I was told by her business owner that at least two Chiswick town centre businesses will close after the Christmas holidays ant there are about 5 others who are taking a wait and see attitude for April next year when the NIC rise comes in effect. She herself was relatively upbeat about her own business and was optimistic of brisk retail trade but said that the stakes were quite high because if the next month disappoints it won't be possible to make it up for the rest of the year. |
