Eighty per cent of businesses in Perth County say they have been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
That’s one of the findings in a survey by the Economic Development and Tourism Division at Perth County.
investStratford assisted with the survey which is the third one done since last March with 96 respondents answering eighteen different questions this time around.
Joani Gerber is the CEO of investStratford and she says there’s a clear message coming out of what was found.
“Cash flow is king and where our businesses have seen the most support is in the various subsidies at certainly the federal and the provincial level.”
Gerber adds the information collected will be presented to councils across the region.
