Ways to work with us
- Management Partnership The Management Partnership is a fantastic agreement and the ideal way to run a pub on a self-employed basis. You’ll have peace of mind knowing that most of the day to day bills associated with running a small business are not yours. This leaves you free to focus entirely on delivering a great retail offer whilst driving sales and profit and a ready-to-go concept with its marketing calendar.
- Tenancy
Our Tenancy agreements vary between 3 – 5 years and offer a flexible approach to running your own pub business. Your pub is set up to trade and you have the option to work with us to offer a food menu, alternatively you can set up your own unique food offer. You will receive a high level of support and everything you need to run a successful business. From the beginning, you will have a dedicated Operations Manager, 12 support teams, access to training and development, business planning, operations and accounting expertise. This is an entrepreneurial agreement suitable for people wishing to have a greater input into the retail offer and allowing them to drive their business their own way. - Lease
We offer a selection of lease agreements with a tenure of 10 years+. All of which are fully repairing and protected under the lease and tenanted legislation. Our lease agreements are a great way to run a pub business on a long-term basis.
