Each Friday, Punchline-Gloucester.com editor Mark Owen is joined by leading Gloucestershire business figures from a range of backgrounds to review Friday's national and regional newspapers, discuss what is happening in their own business sector and in their own individual businesses.

Finally, they round off by picking the stories that have caught their eye in this week's Punchline-Gloucester.com.

The Business Breakfast Briefers show is sponsored by Hazlewoods Accountants and Business Advisors.

This week's panel of experts were:

NEILL RICKETTS - former CEO but still a director of Versarien and chairman of the Forest of Dean Economic Partnership - graphene guru and 'Inspiring the Forest' leader - Neill is a regular on the show.

ENZO MORA - CEO of The Mortgage Brain - which has over 100 staff and a turnover of approx. £6million. Mortgage rates have gone haywire over the past couple of months, so how has it affected the business and has it slowed the market place down? Mortgage guru Enzo says like it is.

MARINA HODGKINS - founder and owner - Fringe Benefits and La Bella Beauty has been trading for thirty four years on Southgate street, Gloucester. The company has recently been shortlisted for the Customer Service Award, at the 25th British Hairdressing Business Awards 2023.

On 18th February 2014 Hollie Gazzard was fatally stabbed by her ex-partner whilst working at the salon - Marina has done a remarkable job of keeping the business going, and not a day goes by without her thinking of Hollie.

Jam packed as always - the show is sponsored by HAZLEWOODS
