GFSB Launches Wellness Series
The Gibraltar Federation of Small Businesses (GFSB) has launched a brand-new
wellness events series, sponsored by Infinity Group. The initiative aims to support the health and
wellbeing of small business employees and employers in Gibraltar, equipping them with the
knowledge and resources to foster healthier workplaces.
Wellbeing at Work: A Critical Focus for Businesses
In recent years, workplace wellbeing has become a crucial topic for businesses of all sizes, and the
GFSB recognises the need for tailored support for smaller enterprises. While larger organisations
often have access to extensive wellness resources, many smaller businesses may face challenges in
this area.
“We wanted to design a number of sessions that focus on specific areas of wellness that are
particularly timely and relevant for our members,” explained a GFSB Board Member Dr Karl Alvarez.
“Through this series, we are ensuring that businesses of all sizes in Gibraltar, including smaller firms,
can access essential wellbeing information and advice.”
The Infinity Group, the event series sponsor, shared their enthusiasm for supporting this initiative.
“The Infinity Group is committed to creating wellness spaces that support the fitness, health and the
general well-being of our members. Our aim is to have all our members ‘live healthier for longer’.”
Free Access for GFSB Members, Available to Non-Members
Thanks to the generous sponsorship of Infinity Group, these wellness events will be offered free of
charge to GFSB members, with non-members able to attend for a small administrative fee.
Upcoming Wellness Series Events
Following the September launch, the wellness series will continue with the following events:
- Women’s Wellbeing: Peri/Menopause Focus – Wednesday 16th October 2024
- Men’s Wellbeing Event – Thursday 21st November 2024
- Event Subject TBC – Thursday 12th December 2024

Education
Growing Beyond the Owner
For many SMEs, the success of the business has been built on the expertise, relationships and commitment of its owner. This entrepreneurial approach has been instrumental in the growth of many of Gibraltar's successful businesses. However, as organisations develop, dependence on a single individual can become a strategic risk.

Freight Delays Bite
Imports including medicines, fresh produce and other commercial goods faced significant delays as businesses and Customs adjusted to the Treaty’s new frontier procedures, with some freight reportedly held since the arrangements began on 15 July. The disruption is the clearest early warning that documentation errors and unfamiliar processes can quickly affect stock availability, perishable goods and operating costs across Gibraltar’s retail and wholesale sectors.
Thrive
Level Up This Summer
For many, summer offers something that's in short supply during the rest of the year: space. Space to learn, think differently, meet new people and recharge before the final push towards year-end. If you're looking to make the most of the season, here are three ways to return in September with fresh ideas, renewed energy and a few new connections.
Brexit
What a Week!
Over the past two years, I must have written more words about the Treaty than almost any other subject. Through the Thrive EDIT, I've tried to cut through the politics and focus on what really matters to Gibraltar's business community. We've unpacked customs guidance, explained residency proposals, questioned support measures, covered Government announcements, highlighted members' concerns and, where necessary, asked awkward questions on your behalf. The aim has always been the same: to make one of the biggest economic changes in Gibraltar's history feel just a little easier to understand.
Advocacy
Events
Representing your interests
At the GFSB, we believe membership should deliver real value. That means more than simply representing businesses around the table. It means creating opportunities to learn, connect and grow. Since September 2025, we've delivered 34 events attended by 1,329 members and guests, with the vast majority offered free of charge as part of GFSB membership. Whether you're looking to sharpen your skills, grow your network or stay ahead of the issues shaping Gibraltar's business landscape, our events are designed to make doing business that little bit easier.
