A new survey of Shop and Display Equipment Association (SDEA) members has shown that over three quarters of respondents felt that remaining in the EU would be the best result for their businesses. The BPIF, also polling its membership on the topic, is yet to give its verdict.
When members were asked what result would be in the best interests of their organisation with regard to the upcoming EU referendum on 23 June, the answer was very decisive - 80% voted in favour of remaining in the EU, whilst 12% voiced a desire to leave and 8% were undecided.
When asked what result would be in the best interests of the UK economy 76% opted to remain in, 12% indicated that leaving the EU would be better for the UK economy, and a further 12% remained undecided.
