Fulham Shore, which owns the Franco Manca and Real Greek brands, warned of a slowdown in trading in July and August, particularly for its restaurants in London’s suburbs.

Fulham Shore has expanded rapidly recently, and now has a total of 56 sites. It still expects to open 15 new restaurants this financial year.
