The fall in the value of sterling is threatening thousands of UK restaurants, which are at risk of going out of business in the next three years.
Recent research shows that over 5,500 restaurant businesses have at least a 30 per cent chance of going insolvent as a result of the rising costs of imported food and the impending reduction in consumer spending.
Adding to pressures on the restaurant industry, margins have also been impacted by the increase in the national living wage which was lifted from £6.70 per hour to £7.20 per hour in April 2016.
