Trading style
The Rainham Arms currently trades strongly as a wet-led community pub, with a good established customer base. Food has previously been offered but has not been sustained, providing an opportunity for a new licensee to introduce a fresh food offer, supported by new menus and targeted local marketing. There is scope to build on the pub’s existing wet trade while developing food sales to complement the current business.
This is a great community pub with the opportunity to build on its strong wet trade by introducing a competitive and sustainable food offer. The ideal licensee will be hardworking and community-focused, with the ability to build strong relationships with customers and become an integral part of the local area.
The successful applicant will be hardworking, personable, and adaptable, with proven leadership abilities and excellent customer service skills. Experience in food operations, marketing, and event planning would be advantageous, along with strong business and financial acumen and a solid understanding of managing a busy bar environment.
