The restaurant chain The Real Greek, which has 28 outlets across the UK, could be set to close, after the company that owns it said cost pressures had made the business unsustainable. The Japanese restaurant group Toridoll, which owns the chain's parent company The Fulham Shore, said it planned to appoint administrators. The Fulham Shore also owns the Franco Manca chain but Toridoll said The Real Greek had suffered more than the pizza chain from the "deterioration in the economic environment". "In recent years, high levels of inflation in the UK, driven by rising energy and food prices together with increase in labour costs resulting from rises in the minimum wage, have created a more challenging operating environment for the hospitality industry than initially anticipated," Toridoll said, announcing the decision.
