Pizza Hut closing at Bentley Bridge
A Pizza Hut restaurant is closing in the Black Country today, bringing uncertainty to staff members.
The American-owned company said the closure of its Bentley Bridge store, in Wolverhampton, was beyond its control.
Work is taking place to redeploy employees to other restaurants "in order to minimise the impact to our workforce", a Pizza Hut spokesman said.
The company confirmed the restaurant, based at Unit 5 in the leisure park, is closing today.
A spokesman said: "Unfortunately the Wolverhampton Bentley Bridge Pizza Hut Restaurant closure has been beyond our control and we are doing everything we can to redeploy our team members to other Pizza Hut Restaurants in order to minimise the impact to our workforce.
"We understand this is a difficult time for everyone involved and are supporting our team members as much as we possibly can."
