With DRS registration having commenced on March 1st, the spotlight is now on Scotland’s pubs, bars, hotels, and late-night venues. If you’re seeking expert insights on what you need to know and do, don’t miss the On-Trade Industry Discussion and Question Time hosted by the Scottish Licensed Trade Association.
With Scotland’s Deposit Return Scheme due to commence on 16th of August this year, many concerns and issues remain on how exactly this will all work. The SLTA has brought together leading experts to inform and discuss, with particular focus on Scotland’s On-Trade, the impact this will have on the day-to-day operation of these businesses.
Hear directly from Simon Jones, Chief Operating Officer of Circularity Scotland regarding their role within the scheme and how it will operate for those in the DRS Closed Loop.
Chaired by Dave Hunter, Assistant Editor of the Scottish Licensed Trade News, Industry leaders will also be on hand to talk about the challenges to be faced and a Q&A session will provide an opportunity to raise questions directly with those responsible for running the Scheme.
The SLTA’s free advisory seminar will take place at the Liquid Academy Live Stage, part of the ScotHot 2023 Exhibition in the SEC, Glasgow, on Wednesday 8th of March at 12 noon.
