HOP

Future & roadmap

Where HOP is heading in a sector slowly moving from tolerance toward regulation.

Part of: HOP — Hospitality Development Platform

From tolerance to regulation

With the start of the closed coffeeshop chain experiment and the growing attention for licensing regimes, the I-criterion and card payments, the need for a shared professionalisation framework is increasing. HOP develops instruments that help operators meet current and future requirements — whether the chain is tolerated or fully regulated.

What to expect in the coming years

Step-by-step expansion of the standards framework, stronger links with banking and fiscal practice, and — depending on political decisions after the experiment — a role in extending regulated elements across the entire sector.
