Greggs have announced that they are planning to extend opening hours across hundreds of their shops.
The bakery chain has also announced that prices could rise by as much as nine percent this year, following largely flat year-on-year financial results. Profits so far this year are sitting at £55.8million compared with £55.5million last year.
Because of this Greggs are looking for ways to pump up their profits, which includes extending opening hours until at least 8pm. They say that 300 of its shops already trade until this time, but want to roll out longer opening times across more of their stores.
