I am advised by Revenue that, when comparing Q2 2025 to Q2 2024, there has not been a significant increase in the number of insolvency-related filings in the hospitality sector . A table of the Q2 data is given below:



Period
Liquidations Hospitality-Related
Q2 2025 153 29
Q2 2024 165 28
When reviewing the data, Revenue caution that the following should be noted:
  • Liquidations include Court Liquidations and Creditors Voluntary Liquidations that relate to Revenue data only concerning Revenue debt where Revenue is a creditor.
  • The hospitality-related data is presented according to the taxpayer’s primary economic activity classification (NACE code). The sectoral breakdown cannot be taken as the exact amount as a number of traders will operate across multiple economic sectors.
