The boss of Thatchers Cider has called on new Prime Minister Liz Truss’s government to provide support for pubs at risk of closure due to rocketing energy bills.
The UK’s second-largest cider maker supplies hospitality venues across the country with cider it has been producing at its Myrtle Farm base in Somerset since 1904.
Managing director Martin Thatcher told BusinessLive many pubs could face having to pay energy costs that are more expensive than their rent.
