Moto re-opens Burger King sites
Motorway service area operator Moto is re-opening 27 of its Burger King restaurants for take-away service only.
The company opened eight sites last week for HGV drivers paying for overnight parking as it tested out new covid-19 adjusted working practices. Following the success of the trial, a further 17 restaurants will be opened up to all customers on 21 May.
Ken McMeikan, Moto chief executive, said: “We are delighted to support motorway users with the reopening of Burger King and to welcome back some of our furloughed colleagues. This is another significant step forward to reopening our catering brands and we look forward to opening more in the coming weeks. I’d like to pay tribute once again to the key workers, HGV drivers and the NHS for the amazing job they continue to do for our country.”
