Thought Leadership
April 2026 is set to hit small UK retailers with a fresh wave of cost hikes, pilling pressure onto a sector many say is facing its toughest time since Covid. Rising wage, insurance, sick pay, business rates, energy standing charges, and reduced owner take‑home pay arrive as consumer demand softens and inflation fears persist amid geopolitical tensions.
