Pizza Hut reveals locations of 68 restaurants to close - three in Leeds on the list
Pizza Hut has revealed the locations of 68 restaurants - including three in Leeds - which will close after the company behind its UK venues fell into administration.
It will also shut 11 delivery sites as part of a restructuring which will put 1,210 workers at risk of redundancy.
Your YEP reported yesterday (October 20) how employees at several Pizza Hut restaurants in the Leeds area were unexpectedly sent home, with only a few busier locations remaining open, according to one member of staff.
The sudden closures have sparked concern and speculation among staff, who told the Yorkshire Evening Post that no clear information from management has been received regarding the situation.
DC London Pie, the firm running Pizza Hut's UK dine-in restaurants under a franchise deal, appointed administrators from corporate finance firm FTI on Monday.
American hospitality giant Yum! Brands , which owns the global Pizza Hut business, said it has now bought the UK restaurant operation in a pre-pack administration deal, saving 64 sites.
Here are the locations of Pizza Hut restaurants set for closure:
