Manitobans Drink Less Shrinks Hotel Revenue Study Says
A Peat Marwick Stevenson and Kellogg study of 113 of Manitoba Hotels flags a drop in average net income across the province's 300 hotels caused by fewer drinking days and related factors. It proposes a federal backed revolving loan fund of up to 100000 per hotel for downsizing beverage rooms, costing about 4 million in lost revenues if not acted on.
