Pizza Hut confirms 68 restaurants to close - here's the full list
Pizza Hut has confirmed the locations of 68 restaurants set to close after the company behind its UK venues fell into administration.
It will also shut 11 delivery sites as part of a restructuring, which will put 1,210 workers at risk of redundancy. DC London Pie, the firm running Pizza Hut's UK dine-in restaurants, appointed administrators from corporate finance firm FTI on Monday.
Here are the locations that are due to close... American hospitality giant Yum! Brands, which owns the global Pizza Hut business, has bought the UK restaurant operation in a pre-pack administration deal, saving 64 sites and around 1,277 jobs.
Nicolas Burquier, managing director of Pizza Hut Europe and Canada, called Monday's agreement a "targeted acquisition" which, he said, "aims to safeguard our guest experience and protect jobs where possible. "Our immediate priority is operational continuity at the acquired locations and supporting colleagues through the transition." The administration came after HMRC filed a winding-up petition on Friday against DC London Pie - less than a year after the business bought the chain's restaurants from insolvency..
