The trade association Koninklijke Horeca Nederland also sees that all prices, both for private individuals and for entrepreneurs, have increased in the past year. “The problem is not only general inflation or the purchase of drinks, but also the rising other purchasing costs, energy costs, rents and personnel costs/employer’s costs. Catering entrepreneurs also have to deal with these price increases and, like all other companies, their pricing policy. It is ultimately up to the entrepreneur himself to determine whether, when and by how much they increase their prices,” said a KHN spokesperson.
