The licensed trade in the UK will be flourishing again in the next few years.
Figures released by CGA Strategy highlighted that closures of public houses are now at the lowest level for more than four years.
Speaking at a media briefing for Suffolk-based cider producers Aspall, CGA's Scott Elliott said that the licensed trade was evolving due to forward thinking publicans and growth can be expected from 2015 onwards, reports In a Pub News.
“The ones that are opening are very different to the ones that are closing. 50 per cent of all new openings are a hybrid kind of concept. The café /wine-bar outlets with a good range of premium products including decent cask ales," he stated.
His comments follow on from advice given by the All Party Parliamentary Beer Group recently, which said that adding a food menu to your pub's offerings is one of the best ways to boost trade.
