With pubs set to reopen for outdoor service in England on April 12, Wetherspoon has shared an update on pubs. It has been announced new branches will open across the country.

Wetherspoon is a pub and restaurant chain which has locations across the UK and Ireland.

Many Britons will have one nearby with a total of 871 pubs already open.

The company has now announced plans to invest a whopping £145million into improvements.

The plans will see 18 new pubs open and various other branches get an upgrade.

The plans are set to begin with a matter or weeks and could help create around 2,000 jobs.

While the exact locations of new branches have not been revealed, Wetherspoon has shared the cities where these are likely to be.

As well as opening 18 new pubs, 57 are set to get significant extensions or upgrades.

Once the 75 detailed upgrades have been made, it is thought expansions will continue in other areas.

Wetherspoon is planning to invest a further £750million to make more improvements.

This could include another 15 pubs opening and expanding another 50 pubs.

The plans are set to take place over the next 10 years.

Wetherspoon founder and chairman Tim Martin stated: “Our immediate investment will provide work for architects, contractors and builders as well as result in 2,000 new jobs for staff in our pubs.

“We are geared up to start on the first projects within a few months.

“We are also committed to our long-term investment and job creation programme over the next decade.

“However, the investment is conditional on the UK opening back up again on a long-term basis, with no further lockdowns or the constant changing of rules.”
