It all depends on the situation. Most times, up skill the existing ones is better. This is because they must have gotten themselves familiar with the business before. This will makes the business owners to do lesser work in training them. Hiring new ones will mean they need to be trained to get used to the business operation.

Hiring new people can bring fresh ideas and skills that your current team might not have, especially if you're trying something new or growing fast. But training the people you already have is usually cheaper and way better for morale. They already get how things work, so it's easier to build on that. Plus, people like it when a company invests in them. In reality, the best move is usually a mix.

The fact is that there is none of the options that will not give you the best result if you do it effectively. Hiring new worker should not restrict you from upscaling your workers. This will make it easier for the business to be growing. You can as well hire new workers.
