Whitbread
Whitbread is the power behind some of the UK’s most successful, much-loved hospitality brands.
We employ over 40,000 people wordwide and serve more than 11 million customers every month in the UK alone. Our brands include Premier Inn, Beefeater Grill, Brewers Fayre, Table Table, Taybarns and Costa Coffee.
We’ve set our sights on ambitious and fast-paced growth. In 2011/12 we plan to grow Premier Inn by approximately 9%, by adding 4,000 rooms and 14 new restaurants. At Costa we will look to add around 300 new stores.
We have also set out new five year growth milestones; Premier Inn to accelerate growth and increase its UK capacity by 50% to at least 65,000 rooms; Costa to double to 3,500 stores worldwide and £1.3 billion system sales, and Costa Express to be expanded to 3,000 units.
Although our brands span different areas of the hospitality business, we all share common vision and values and a clear vision on responsibility and commitment. The way we work together behind the scenes makes us confident we’ll achieve our vision of becoming the best large-scale hospitality company anywhere.
