Carluccio’s will today unveil plans to revamp the design, food and service at 60 of its restaurants in a restructuring involving the closure of 30 loss-making sites.
Landmark Group, its Dubai-based owner, will invest £10 million in its UK portfolio, which will be cut from 103 to 73 outlets under the terms of a company voluntary arrangement agreed by its landlords.
Mark Jones, who took over as chief executive in January, said the programme would enable the chain to “reassert and build on” its position as a leading Italian restaurant company.
