About the Discussion

The events of the last four years have had a profound and lasting effect on those working in the drinks industry resulting in a tumultuous employment landscape. While some workers made the change from retailer or producer to wholesaler, tier-jumpers most commonly left on-premise jobs to join the importer/distributor or off-premise sectors.

In this virtual roundtable discussion, leaders will discuss the shifts in the workplace tier that have lasting effects on the hospitality industry. They will discuss how industry partners can support on-premise as it works to retain top talent and regain their pre-pandemic motivation and sense of purpose.
