Wild Mind Ales Plans to Close Along with Daytime Coffeehouse
UNITED KINGDOM, JUL 22 – BrewDog will close 10 bars due to unprofitability, risking over 100 jobs as part of a strategy to focus on larger, destination and community bars, CEO said.
- BrewDog will close ten UK bars, staff given just three days' notice, according to Unite Hospitality, with closures starting this Friday, July 25.
- The firm described that keeping these sites open would pressure the wider business, making growth harder, and CEO James Taylor attributed closures to a £24m loss and viability issues.
- Affecting ten outlets, including the group's first bar in Aberdeen, close to 100 jobs are at risk, with staff given only three days' notice.
- Union officials stated, 'less than four days notice is potentially unlawful' and are supporting members to challenge the redundancies.
- The company said BrewDog will launch a consultation, and said they expect to redeploy many affected team members, adding `We are working hard to minimise the impact`.
