DEVELOPING: Pizza Hut Slams Brakes on 68 UK Restaurants Amid Shocking Administration Filing

Breaking News: Pizza Hut Slams Brakes on 68 UK Restaurants Amid Shocking Administration Filing Pizza Hut UK has filed for administration, with 68 restaurants and 11 delivery sites set to close, resulting in the loss of 1,210 jobs. The move comes after DC London Pie Limited, which operates Pizza Hut's UK restaurants, appointed FTI Consulting as administrators on Monday. The immediate impact will be felt by employees at the affected locations, who face redundancy. However, global owner Yum! Brands has agreed to save 64 restaurants in the UK, preserving 1,276 jobs. Pizza Hut has been struggling and previously went into administration in January. The company's spokesperson said they are "pleased to secure the continuation of 64 sites" but did not comment on the closure of the remaining locations. Nicolas Burquier, managing director Pizza Hut Europe and Canada, stated that the priority is now "operational continuity at the acquired locations and supporting colleagues through the transition".
