Café Rouge plans to offer fast food for travellers
29 March 2011 10:05
Restaurant group Tragus, which is backed by Blackstone private equity, is planning to open up to 50 mini Café Rouge's at train stations around the UK as part of a plan to expand the franchise.
A test site of Café Rouge Express opened at Euston Station in London last month and is believed to have been a considerable success. The site is smaller in size, with just 50 seats, and a takeaway-style format.
In the year to May 2010, Tragus reported sales up by almost 6% although like-for-like sales fell by 1.6%.
