Supplementary notes

* GVA is defined by the source as follows: "GVA is the value of output generated by an industry or individual business minus the costs of production. For a restaurant business such as ours, it is calculated by taking the total value of sales and subtracting the cost of production, including expenditure on food ingredients, costs of operating restaurant sites and spending on advertising and professional services."
