“The President has offered small businesses a glimmer of hope - although it may be too little too late for some,” BASA said in a statement last night.

’’Survey results from the Craft Brewer’s Association of South Africa indicate that 87.5% of craft brewers are still at risk of permanent closure – and with zero targeted relief from government, this will likely become a reality. ’’To date, the industry has not been able to secure a meeting with Minister Patel or the Presidency to deal with this dire matter. BASA would like to reiterate that there is a desperate need for payment deferrals, financial relief, and liquor licence automatic renewals for 2021, if we are to have any hope of saving the businesses that remain standing.
