The year 2021 has commenced in much thesame way it concluded – with emerging opportunities for the Mint industry as well as considerable challenges.
I don’t need to tell you what an
extraordinary and difficult year 2020 has been. However, I can say that member Mints have been amazing in dealing with the year’s challenges and in responding so positively to the opportunities as they have emerged. It is a reminder to all of us of the adaptability, resilience and creativity that so characterises our industry.
As we head to the year end and Christmas period the industry has a chance to stop and reflect on a year that none of us have ever experienced before and let’s hope never will again.
