Pub chain JD Wetherspoon is selling off a portfolio of 32 of its UK pubs.
The hospitality firm, which owns and operates around 800 pubs, said it has put the sites on the market - as a “commercial decision”. The mix of ten freehold and 22 leasehold units, all of which are based in town and city centre locations, are being considered for sale either individually, in small packages or as an entire portfolio.
Company spokesman Eddie Gershon said: “On occasion, Wetherspoon does put some of its pubs up for sale. This is a commercial decision. We understand that customers and staff will be disappointed with it. The pubs will continue to operate as Wetherspoon outlets until they are sold.”
