Barburrito to close three restaurants following restructure
More than 270 jobs were protected.
Barburrito will close three sites as part of a restructuring deal, which will also see a new injection of investment led by its chairman Graham Turner.
The deal, overseen by restructuring specialists RSM, is expected to preserve 14 of the group's restaurants and protect more than 270 jobs through a corporate restructure.
Sites closing permanently are located in Aberdeen Union Square, Edinburgh Lothian Road and Manchester Deansgate.
The company said that teams from the Edinburgh and Manchester sites will be transferred to other Barburrito restaurants in the two respective cities.
"In common with many in our sector, the closures and liabilities accrued during lockdown have resulted in us having to restructure the business. However, with the new investment, support of our landlords and the hard work of our fantastic teams, Barburrito is now well positioned to succeed in this new landscape,” CEO Morgan Davies said.
