Situation analysis and trend forecasting
The six external environments that are affecting hospitality business are: the economic factor, social factor, competitive, political and legal, technology and ecological factors. Next, we take each factor one by one and explain them.
ECONOMIC factors
Include the inflation, when the increase in the price of goods and services affects the business itself and the economy as a hole. Since our country despite of being part of EU still uses local currency, the exchange rate between local currency and EURO can be considered as an economic factor.
The income per capita in our country dramatically dropped in the past 2 years, so this can be considered a very important factor which cannot be overlooked. Unemployment is reaching new records day by day, big multinational companies have to move their businesses elsewhere (see Nokia, they moved to Asia)
