D&D London bounces back in the City

By James Russell: D&D London bounces back in the City

January 21, 2014

D&D London has revealed that it recorded record revenues for December:

  • Highest ever Christmas revenues
  • London restaurant revenues + 5% like for like compared with 2012
  • London restaurant core revenues (excluding exceptional event revenues) + 7%
  • City and Canary Wharf restaurants + 15%

Fabulous Christmas in the City

Des Gunewardena, Chairman and CEO of D&D London, commented:

“For a number of years we have been reporting positive Christmas trading driven by strong sales in our West End and Kensington and Chelsea restaurants. During these years the City has been pretty flat. This December has seen a dramatic reversal of that trend.

“We have had a fabulous Christmas in the City and in Canary Wharf. We have traded well not only in our more recently opened venues such as Old Bengal Warehouse and South Place Hotel, but also in our more established restaurants such as Coq d’Argent, Plateau and Paternoster Chop House. After a number of years of relatively austere Decembers, it’s good to see the City bouncing back! “
