Trading style
The Spinners is a community pub that benefits from strong local support and a loyal customer base. The pub has a clear sports focus, with Rugby League proving particularly popular, supported by the success of the Leigh Leopards. Live sport is a key driver, with both Sky Sports and TNT Sports shown throughout the pub. A varied drinks range is offered, with strong potential to drive sales through well-planned promotions and attractive drinks offers. Entertainment has historically performed well, with live music and quiz nights proving popular. The incoming operator will have the opportunity to build on this by developing a strong and consistent rhythm of the week, creating regular reasons for customers to visit and engage with the pub.
The BDM is seeking an individual or couple who are sociable, engaging, and passionate about becoming an integral part of the local community. A strong focus on community-led events and a varied weekly programme is essential to drive footfall and rebuild trade. The successful candidate will have proven experience running a similar style of pub, with a strong track record in increasing trade and delivering engaging marketing and entertainment plans that actively support the local community. This business is a true rebuild opportunity, where success will be driven by a visible, hands-on operator with a strong community presence. The pub benefits from both sports and entertainment, and these must be key focus areas for the new operators to attract and retain the local customer base. A confident and consistent presence on social media is essential, with the ability to use digital platforms effectively to promote events, engage the community, and drive trade.
