In the third Economic Trends survey of 2022, Cork Chamber asked members about their experience in the most recent business quarter, Q3 2022 (July, August, September), on the business outlook for the fourth quarter of 2022 and on the impact of energy and inflation on business. This Economic Trends Survey captures a snapshot of business experiences and of the overall operating landscape over the summer months in a period which saw the publication of the Government’s Budget 2023 and continued challenges with the rising cost of energy and inflation.
