Its turnover remained fairly flat compared to the previous year at £2.6m, but losses were marginally lower than last year’s figure of £1.4m.
The director’s report filed with the accounts said that Trump International’s “reputation and status...continues to expand, as its services and products evolve.”
The Aberdeenshire resort employs nine fewer staff than it did last year, with its employee register running to just 84 workers, according to the annual accounts for 2017.
