[Heineken is investing £39m in more
than 600 of its pubs in the UK -
in a move it
says will bring 62 back from the dead.
The Dutch brewer said the cash injection
into its Star Pubs operation will
create more than 1,000 jobs.
According to Star Pubs, 612 pubs are
set to benefit, with refurbishments focusing
on "transforming tired pubs in suburban
areas into premium locals" as people
commute less to city centres.
This will include "subtle zoning" work
to cater for various customer activities,
such as watching sport and dining.
Two pubs in Essex have already reopened
after works costing £424,000 together,
with another in Bromsgrove,
near Birmingham, set to relaunch later
this month.]
