Brewdog puts 100 jobs at risk as beer giant to close ten bars this week
- Brewdog is set to close ten of its bars across the UK, including its inaugural venue in Aberdeen.
- The closures, effective from 26 July, are expected to put nearly 100 jobs at risk.
- The company stated that the decision was made because the bars were not commercially viable, citing rising costs, increased regulation, and broader economic pressures.
- Founder James Watt confirmed the closures are part of an estate refresh but reiterated plans to expand the bar business with new 'destination' and community-focused venues.
- Brewdog is working to minimise the impact on staff, aiming to redeploy many affected team members within its network.
