Overview

If you have previous hospitality management experience and are looking to run your own pub business, the Darran in Risca, Caerphilly is available now on Marston’s new Community Food Partnership agreement.

The Darran is a quirky community pub with tons of character, well-situated on the edge of a large housing estate in the town of Risca in Caerphilly, about 30 minutes from Cardiff. This dog-friendly pub enjoys a excellent reputation locally, attracting families and groups for dining and drinkers who enjoy the warm and friendly atmosphere.

The Darran a 2-story operation, with a bar, TVs and dining area with booths on the ground floor. The kitchen is situated on the 1st floor, which has potential to serve as a separate dining area. .

The pub operates our branded menu, catering for 123 covers and currently trades at around £10k a week, 55% of which is food sales. The Darran has the potential to turnover at least £15k a week with the opportunity to drive sales through regular events and marketing locally and on social media.

Our Community Food Partnership is perfect for people with pub or restaurant experience, passionate about pubs and obsessed with serving great food and an unforgettable experience every time!  With low ingoing costs, and all the training and support you need to set you up for success, this is a great way of running your own business. This is an opportunity to earn an unlimited potential of sales backed up with a guaranteed annual retained sum to provide you with some peace of mind.

The Opportunity

What’s in it for you?

  • A guaranteed annual retained sum of £35k, released weekly,
  • Plus 26% share of weekly sales, excluding VAT.
  • Incentive bonuses based on business performance and standard audits.
  • Low ingoing costs, starting with just a £5,000 deposit and £360 legal cost. See ‘Things to consider’ for more information.
  • Accommodation included with most bills covered, except the council tax & TV License.
  • All of your stock, including food, and all associated consumables are supplied by Marston’s, although you will be responsible for managing it once it has been delivered.
  • Comprehensive induction training and ongoing support and training.
  • A dedicated area manager working with you to help you grow the business.
  • Access to our 450 strong-support teams whenever you need them – including Marketing, Recruitment and Food and Drink specialists.
  • All our Pub Partners get access to our FREE Learning, Development and Training platform Campus (a package worth over £300!).

What’s expected from you:

Our Community Food Partnership pubs are food-led businesses, operating our Marston’s corporate menu. It’s a proven business-model, perfect for self-sufficient hospitality managers with a creative flair, who can drive sales, standards and guest experience.

In addition to the £5k security deposit required for this agreement, you will need to cover legal costs (£360), and your own insurance (except building insurance, which we’ll cover). Also, you’ll want to start thinking about your team; taking care of paying them and all other employment matters.

Before we all sign the agreement and see you heading into a whole new life, you’ll just need to show us proof that you’ve had independent financial advice from an accountant and solicitor and have completed a sustainable business plan, in accordance with the Pubs Code. And, of course, obtain your personal licence (which we can help with) and complete your induction training.

It’s a five-year commitment, so you have loads of time to build the business and get it performing brilliantly but, if you do want to leave early, there’s always the option of six months’ notice with a ‘break’ clause in the contract.
