MORE than 90% of Yorkshire firms expect to increase revenues in the next 12 months, says a survey.
The annual Entrepreneurship UK report from Deloitte showed that the figure for the region compared closely with the rest of the country.
Some 46% of firms in Yorkshire against 56% nationally expect to generate at least 10% revenue growth over the coming year.
In addition, 46% of Yorkshire companies forecast growth of up to 10% compared with 36% UK-wide. Just 5% project no growth against 8% nationally.
Raising and generating cash remains a high priority for entrepreneurs as 46% of respondents reveal they are actively stockpiling and retaining cash within their business.
Some 22% have less cash than at the same time last year, but say they have enough to get by. A further 20% are monitoring their cash position daily and making decisions as needed.
The UK, Europe and North America remain the preferred markets.
