Boars Head, Shrewsbury - Shrewsbury RUN THE BOARS HEAD, SHREWSBURY Your Local Partnership Overview: The Boars Head is a wet-led community pub in Shrewsbury with strong visibility on a busy main road just outside the town centre. Benefiting from regular local trade, weekend circuit drinkers and the wider appeal of Shrewsbury's thriving visitor economy, this is an exciting pub partnership opportunity for an operator looking to build a lively and welcoming local. The business: Currently taking around £3,500 per week, the business operates with a 100% wet sales mix. The pub already benefits from established weekend trade and provides a solid platform for growth. Its town-centre location and visibility create strong opportunities to attract both local customers and visitors, while the pub's community feel gives it the foundations needed to build a loyal regular customer base. The opportunity: There is clear potential to grow sales towards £5,000 per week by increasing activity throughout the week and creating more reasons for customers to visit. Opportunities include developing live sport, live music, pub games, local events and themed occasions that complement the existing weekend trade. The next operator can build a stronger rhythm of trade, recruit additional pub teams and further establish the Boars Head as a go-to social venue within the local community. Who we're looking for: We're looking for a hands-on operator who understands wet-led pubs and knows how to create a welcoming atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. Whether you're an experienced pub operator or someone with the drive, personality and ambition to grow into the role with Marston's support, you'll have the confidence to engage the local community, drive sales and bring fresh energy to the business. Local knowledge of Shrewsbury would be an advantage but isn't essential. What's in it for you? 20% share of weekly wet sales, excluding VAT. Keep 100% of the food sales. Low ingoing costs, starting with just a £5,000 deposit and £360 legal cost (deposits can vary depending on the business). Accommodation included, with most bills covered except council tax and TV Licence. Ready to take the next step? Run the Boars Head and build a thriving community pub at the heart of Shrewsbury's social scene. If you're ready to take on your own pub business, grow an established wet-led operation and create a pub that locals return to time and time again, we'd love to hear from you.
