Escape Hunt, an AIM-listed company that runs escape rooms, expects to hit its target for new openings despite the pressures of the pandemic.
The company said in a trading update that its sites have performed well since reopening on 17 May, with revenue during the five weeks since 47% higher than in the same period two years ago.
Escape Hunt opened five new owner-operated sites in the UK during the last 12 months. Two of those – in Watford and Kingston – opened for the first time in May, while its sites in Norwich, Basingstoke and Cheltenham opened in the second half of 2020 but have had limited trading due to lockdowns.
