On-trade sales soar 25% as Britain reopens 21st May, 2021 by Kate Malczewski
Britain’s on-trade has come roaring back to life, with sales up by a quarter compared to pre-Covid numbers as venues reopened indoors on Monday 17 May.
Monday’s reopening marked the first time British consumers could drink and dine indoors in 2021
According to market researcher CGA, average sales of reopened bars, restaurants and pubs on the first day of indoor trading were 24.9% higher than on the same day in 2019.
Drink sales were up 21.2% from before the pandemic, while food sales grew by 29.6%.
Following the return of outdoor service on 12 April, Monday’s indoor reopening was the first time British consumers could drink and dine inside since December 2020. CGA previously reported that only one third of venues reopened for outdoor dining last month, meaning that the majority did not get back to business until this week.
Britons headed back to the office for the first time in more than a year today as commuters continued to return to city centres with lockdown rules easing further.
Rush-hour traffic congestion in London was at 65 per cent at 8am today, up from last Friday (55 per cent) and the averages in 2020 (49 per cent) and 2019 (63 per cent).
Office staff posted selfies on social media as they took the train in to work this morning - with some saying it was their first time back in since March 2020.
Some parts of the mainline rail network expect passenger numbers to return to up to 85 per cent of pre-Covid levels today as step three of the roadmap gets underway.

The peri-peri chain restaurant announced last year that it is striving to reach net-zero direct emissions by 2030 – a vision underpinned by interim science-based targets for reducing emissions associated with meals by 50%.
Building on this longer-term vision, it has today (17 May) announced plans to offset emissions across direct (Scope 1), power-related (Scope 2) and indirect (Scope 3) sources, in a drive to reach carbon neutrality before the end of the year.
