Shropshire Pizza Hut among 68 restaurants set for closure after franchisee falls into administration
One branch of Pizza Hut in Shropshire is set to close after the company behind its UK venues fell into administration.
Pizza Hut has revealed the locations of 68 restaurants across the UK which will close after franchisee, DC London Pie, appointed administrators on Monday.
11 delivery sites will also be shut as part of a restructuring which will put more than 1,200 jobs at risk.
American hospitality giant Yum! Brands, which owns the global Pizza Hut business, has confirmed 64 sites have been saved after it bought the UK restaurant operation in a pre-pack administration deal.
Only one Shropshire branch is on the list of restaurants at risk of closure - Shrewsbury's Meole Brace branch.
A notice of site closure had already been attached to a window inside the restaurant, stating that the store had been "closed with immediate effect" from October 20.
The notice continued: "From this date, all operations at the site have ceased, and access will be restricted to authorised personnel only.
"The joint administrators have written to all known employees, suppliers and creditors seperately."
Pizza Hut's Telford branch does not appear on the list, and seems to be open as usual.
Other West Midlands locations include Dudley and Solihull, as well as two delivery sites in Coventry.
