City Pub Company to invest £15m in expanding chain


City Pub Company is planning to invest £15m in the expansion of its London-based chain of pubs over the next six months. The firm currently operates 14 pubs.

The firm, which is split into two companies - City Pub Company East and City Pub Company West, was set up in December 2011 by three entrepreneurs from the pub and drinks world; David Bruce, the original creator of the Firkin pubs, Clive Watson, and John Roberts, formerly MD at Fuller’s.
