📉 More than 150 pubs have shut down since the beginning of 2023 in England and Wales due to soaring energy expenses, media reported on Tuesday, citing a survey by the commercial property firm Altus Group.
📊 According to the data, over the first quarter of the year 51 pub has been closed each month, or almost two pubs a day.

Now, a total number of pubs in England and Wales including vacant places and those put up for rent is 39,634, media reported.

According to the British Beer and Pub Association, an average energy bill for a year will grow by 18,400 pounds ($22.9 thousand) by the end of 2023.
