As reported in RTÉ’s latest article, the Irish Government’s decision to reduce the VAT rate back to 9% for the hospitality sector is being welcomed by some—but will it actually solve the problems faced by hotels, restaurants, and tourism businesses?
At EfficiencyDoctors.ie, we understand the pressures facing the sector: soaring costs, staff shortages, energy hikes, and tight margins. A temporary tax cut might offer momentary relief, but it’s no substitute for systemic, sustainable solutions.
Here’s why efficiency—not VAT—is the real game-changer:
Operational Health Check: We audit your business systems to identify cost leakages and underperformance. Most businesses don’t realise how much they’re losing daily through inefficiencies.
Lean Processes: We streamline operations to reduce waste, improve productivity, and enhance service delivery—without cutting corners or staff.
Sustainable Savings: While VAT cuts fluctuate, our strategies create year-on-year cost reductions across energy use, procurement, staffing patterns, and back-office functions.
Data-Driven Decisions: You’ll gain access to measurable KPIs and reporting dashboards, helping you make informed financial and operational choices.
Resilience Over Reliance: Long-term success comes from self-reliance and operational excellence—not from unpredictable government interventions.

It’s clear that the hospitality sector needs help—but smart businesses are looking beyond band-aid solutions. Now is the time to make every euro work harder. Whether you run a boutique hotel, a restaurant, or a regional tourism hub, EfficiencyDoctors.ie can help you cut costs, not quality.
Let’s build leaner, more resilient businesses—together.
