Carluccio’s is set to close 30 restaurants, putting 500 jobs at risk, as it attempts to restructure.
The Italian chain is using a company voluntary agreement to try and stay in business – a CVA allows a firm to continue trading while dealing with debts- with 91% of its creditors voting to approve the plan on Thursday.
Mark Jones, chief executive of Carluccio’s, said: “I would like to thank our landlords for their support. We now look forward to a positive future and the on-going development of the Carluccio’s business and of course our passionate people.”
