Mediterranean restaurant chain Hummus Brothers has gone into administration, making it the latest in a string of casual dining chains to fall victim to rising rates and slow consumer spending.
The company was founded in 2005 and had six outlets across London.
In a statement posted on Twitter, Hummus Brothers said: “The combination of the pound falling after the Brexit vote, which pushed up the costs of our raw ingredients, as well as property rents and business rates going up ever higher, make the high street a very difficult place to operate in at this time.”
