Additional information
Additional Information – the financial year to 31 August 2025 has shown a loss of £9,819 at Zak’s Cafe Ltd. Turnover increased from £271,803 to £278,772 but total administrative expenses increased significantly from £190,076 to £212,830. Staff salaries in particular increased with the 6.7 % rise in the National Living Wage. Food and energy costs have risen substantially during the year. Additional costs have also been incurred because we now employ the services of a part time financial assistant who has taken over the financial role previously carried out on a voluntary basis by Penelope Lee. The financial challenges we have faced are typical of those experienced by many businesses in the hospitality sector. We have taken decisions to increase prices and to reduce costs wherever possible. This includes our staffing costs. It is, however, important to maintain services at the level our customers expect. We regularly check our contracts and look round for any better financial offers to aid our business. The Directors feel they have made every effort to ensure Zak’s Cafe Ltd can continue to trade as a going concern.
