    Small businesses are hoping for a reprieve this year

    Small businesses are hoping for a reprieve this year


    A Buy NZ Made survey has found 59 percent of its small business members are still dealing with rising costs, and 42 percent are concerned about cashflow.

    A third say staying afloat will be their priority in 2025.

    Buy NZ Made executive director Dane Ambler says last year was the most difficult year for business since the pandemic.

    He says Kiwis can power change by supporting local businesses.
