Business property specialist Christie & Co has been instructed to market 61 freehold pubs in England and Wales from the Marston’s estate.
The assets, which are a selection of Marston’s non-core properties, include a mix of leased, tenanted, retail and managed pubs, and are available to purchase individually, in small groups or as a group package.
“This is a fantastic opportunity for individuals and multiple operators to acquire established successful public houses across England and Wales,” said Noel Moffitt, senior director, corporate pubs and restaurants at Christie & Co, who is managing the sales process.
“The pub sector has been very resilient over the last few years and has adapted well to the challenges, and despite interest in the sector there is a lack of properties on the market. This portfolio offers new entrants and existing operators a wonderful opportunity to acquire investments or operate their own businesses.”
Judith Rafique, head of estates at Marston’s, added: “Following a routine review of our estate, we have taken the decision to offer to market a varied range of property types. This enables us to focus on our strategic objectives and maximise returns from our core estate.”
