The owner of Upper Crust and Caffè Ritazza has said it will achieve only a quarter of last year’s sales because of the impact on its railway and airport outlets from the shift to working and restrictions on travel.
SSP Group, which is planning to cut up to 5,000 jobs in the UK after heavy losses during the coronavirus lockdown, said just under a third of its 2,800 outlets worldwide had reopened so far as passenger numbers remained low at train stations and airports.
