Prominent Illawarra beverage wholesaler Kollaras & Co has joined businesses voicing their support for a carefully planned revival of domestic cruise operations, as ongoing suspensions continue to wipe billions of dollars from the Australian economy. John Kollaras, Managing Director has had to cut staff and rationalise operations since cruise ships stopped sailing in March. The 60-year-old family-owned company is the latest to be featured in CLIA’s #WeAreCruise video series, which highlights the economic impact suffered by local businesses and the 25,000 jobs that are at risk across Australasia while the cruise industry remains at anchor. In the video John explains how businesses along the cruise industry supply chain have been impacted and their need for certainty in the future. #WeAreCruise.
