    Sir John Fitzgerald pub group acquired in multimillion-pound deal

    Enjoyed a number of their pubs when I visited Newcastle early this year.

    A pity - SJF were a pretty reliable owner of historic pubs and I doubt the new people will resist the temptation to modernise.
    On leaving the bar, I felt a strong blow to the back of my head. Turning round, I discovered it was the pavement

    "Family-owned Welsh brewer SA Brain & Co has handed over the running of its 156 pubs to Marston’s, saving 1,300 jobs, after the coronavirus pandemic threatened their closure.

    "Before the pandemic, the pubs included in the deal made £14m a year in core earnings. Marston’s will take over the pubs in February, mostly under 25-year leases from Brains. The annual rent on the pubs was £5.5m. The pubs will be run under the Brains brand, and will continue to sell its beer."

    "Prof Deacon said a change towards "funky localised brands" and "lager over beer" hasn't helped Brains but the firm has "lots of opportunity" if it is forced to leave Cardiff.

    "They need to ensure the story they're telling about Brains brewey is one of heritage and maybe not necessarily anchored to a Cardiff-centric brand. You could brew elsewhere with the heart of Wales in the bottle."


    What a lot of crap.
