The Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) has received some interesting statistics and comments indicating that 2020 could be a very good year for conservatory sales.
The GGF has written to the three Scottish Government departments, as well as a direct letter to First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, asking for the current lockdown restrictions on home improvement companies to be eased.
The Glass and Glazing Federation (GGF) is saddened to hear Everest Ltd, a founder member of the GGF and a regular contributor to GGF meetings for more than 40 years, has gone into pre-pack administration.
The GGF recently wrote to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, requesting that the Job Retention Scheme was made more flexible to help companies who may only require furloughed workers to return on a part-time basis.
In the last few weeks, the GGF has observed further examples of misinformation around the COVID-19 situation and its impact on the home improvement sector.
The GGF has received plenty of queries on whether or not Showrooms can be re-opened, following the Government’s Guidance on working in people’s homes being released on 11 May.
As the Government is starting to rejuvenate the economy, the GGF calls on companies to adjust to the safety guidance and ensure all work is carried out as safely as possible.
