This well-known London based niche fast casual restaurant group, which currently operates out of 10 licensed premises (including 3 concessions), 9 of which are in and around London. Established more than 10 years ago, as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic, the Company entered in to a Creditors Voluntary Arrangement (“CVA”) in Q3 of 2023.
With the CVA in place, the Company streamlined head office costs, agreed new rent deals with several of its landlords and divested itself of 4 non-profitable restaurants and closed its prep kitchen.
Whilst the business continues to operate at a high level of execution in terms of product and standards at site level, the Company has continued to burn cash burn since the CVA and, due to a combination of Covid legacy debt and a constantly inconsistent trading environment it is unable to continue to make payments into the CVA. Consequently, we have been engaged to market the business and assets with a view to a sale by a subsequently appointed Administrator.
Assets include the restaurants operating out from 7 leased premises and 3 profitable concessions from 3rd party leisure and hospitality sites.
According to the management accounts turnover to November 2023 was more than £9m with 9 of the sites generating a profit at the operating level, before head office costs, although the Net Loss to November 2023 was slightly in excess of (£1,000,000) and for the 8 months of the current financial year 3was approximately (£220,000) on a turnover of just under £5m.
In addition to the restaurants, the business benefits from trademarks and a healthy social media presence, particularly on Instagram.
