Alongside the closure statement no other information was available currently from the press team.
We did ask if the closures were as a consequence of the Covid-19 crisis and received the following reply from a spokesperson for the group: “This does not have a direct link to Covid-19, however we are using this time to review our businesses across the globe and make changes where we feel necessary.”
We reported recently that Gordon Ramsay has been working with banks to secure the future of his restaurant business from the ongoing impact of Covid-19 – Gordon Ramsay seeks liquidity – We assume the closures in Qatar are part of this process.
