The government has now implemented a package of measures to help businesses throughout the coronavirus crisis. These measures include a three-month rent moratorium for retailers, support in paying employees’ wages and a 12-month business rates holiday. Full details can be seen here.
A scheme to help the self-employed (of which there are many on Savile Row) was also unveiled yesterday. Full details can be seen here.
Due to the coronavirus crisis, our members and neighbouring businesses have now closed their premises to customers until further notice.
Please note that a number of our members do offer online shopping services, some of which remain open for business.
Our members are adhering to World Health Organisation and local authorities' advice regarding the coronavirus situation to ensure the well-being of their customers, suppliers and staff.
And we are all working together to ensure that Savile Row emerges from this very difficult period in good shape and continues to operate as the unique street that it is.
We hope that you and your loved ones are safe and well at this time. And thank you for your support and understanding.
