Lancashire businesses are navigating choppy economic waters in the latest round of quarterly results.
Manufacturing output in the county is down while the service sector is faring better than expected in the three months since a new government took over.
The green shoots of recovery experienced 12 months ago have levelled off – but there are more positive signs on the recruitment front with both sectors looking to bolster staff in the coming months, the quarterly economic survey suggests.
In partnership with Brabners, the survey had an increased number of responders from across the Lancashire business community, with some admitting there could be anxious times ahead.
The results were presented in front of dozens of Lancashire businesses at the Economic Breakfast, at The Mill, St Catherine’s Hospice in Bamber Bridge.
