Brasserie Bar Co has appointed Ed Little as its group property director, with effect from 5 October.
Little was formerly property director at RedCat Pub Company and has spent more than 15 years working with publicly listed venture capitalist-backed leisure companies – including participating in the sale of Hawthorn Leisure to Admiral Pub Company.
He will work closely with the group’s existing property director, Jeremy Brown, who will take on the newly created role of acquisitions director, dedicating 100% of his time to finding the right sites to meet the company’s ambitious growth plans.
Brasserie Bar Co, which was acquire by Alchemy Partners in February this year, currently operates 32 sites across its Brasserie Blanc and White Brasserie pub formats and has the requisite funds to grow to 70 sites over the next three to five years.
Richard Ferrier, managing director commented: “We are delighted that Ed is joining the senior Brasserie Bar Co team. He brings with him a wealth of experience, particularly in freehold pubs where our acquisition plans are focussed.
“I would also like to thank Jeremy Brown for the incredible job he has done to date. I am sure that Ed and Jeremy will create a formidable working partnership that will underpin Brasserie Bar Co’s ambitious property strategy.”
