COVID-19 has negatively impacted most industry sectors in Australia, in one way or another. However, for businesses like Thermawood, who specialise in Retrofit Double Glazed Window installations, it’s business as usual. This provides potential franchisee’s looking at owning a franchise business in this space, peace of mind knowing that business can continue in most cases, like during these current unprecedented events.

We all know that times are tough at the moment, with schools closed and thousands left unemployed or stood down and most small businesses suffering huge revenue losses. This has been caused by the changes in business operations and government restrictions about group gatherings, as well as unprecedented circumstances due to the COVID-19 global crisis. The hospitality industry is possibly one of the hardest hit with dine-in options stripped away and new measures put in place to force restaurants to operate on a takeaway and delivery service only.

Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, restaurants in Australia are struggling with government restrictions that only allow takeaway services, shutting down the dine-in side of businesses. We have seen some restaurants quickly adapt to these challenges by coming up with innovative and creative ideas to manage the situation through lockdown and keep customers happy. 

In these uncertain times, it’s important to focus on positive stories and the ways in which people and businesses have adapted to adhere to government restrictions. We’re all affected in some way or other and it's also changed the way that the Poolwerx business operates. Most importantly though, there is light at the end of the tunnel.
